[PATCH v7 13/16] drm/scheduler: Fix hang when sched_entity released

[Christian König]

In a separate discussion with Daniel we once more iterated over the 
dma_resv requirements and I came to the conclusion that this approach 
here won't work reliable.

The problem is as following:
1. device A schedules some rendering with into a buffer and exports it 
as DMA-buf.
2. device B imports the DMA-buf and wants to consume the rendering, for 
the the fence of device A is replaced with a new operation.
3. device B is hot plugged and the new operation canceled/newer scheduled.

The problem is now that we can't do this since the operation of device A 
is still running and by signaling our fences we run into the problem of 
potential memory corruption.

Not sure how to handle that case. One possibility would be to wait for 
all dependencies of unscheduled jobs before signaling their fences as 
canceled.

Christian.
