I'll add "We need to call drm_sched_job_init earlier so we can use the new
drm_sched_job_await* functions for dependency handling here. That gives a
bit more context on what's going on here.

The job_init vs push_job is addressed here:

I split job_init into job_init (which can fail, and be done earlier) and
job_arm (which can't fail, and must be atomic with the push_job).

The entire goal of this is to lift the dependency handling from "everyone
copypastes v3d" to "drm_sched has it for you already", which is this patch
here:
