This one is hideous ;) Although to me this isn't the 'infamous' one as
it's not the earliest example of a dummy job.

However... I believe as Panfrost currently stands this is probably not
very possible to hit. It requires a job to be stopped (soft or hard) at
a critical point during submission - which at the moment Panfrost
basically never does (the exception is if you close the fd immediately
while a job is in progress). And of course the timing has to be 'just
right' to hit the bug.

That said I think we should probably add pre-emption support sometime at
which point this could become an issue.
