Did you port the entire patchset or just 'drm/amd/virt: Drop concurrent 
GPU reset protection for SRIOV' ?

Are you saying that the entire patch-set with and without patch 
'drm/amd/virt: Drop concurrent GPU reset protection for SRIOV
is casing this GPUVM page fault during testing engine hang while running 
benchmark ?

Do you never observe this page fault when running this test with 
original tree without the new patch-set ?
