Xe uses a single-threaded work queue, Nouveau does not (desired
behavior).
The list of pending jobs is protected by a lock (safe), the race is:
add job to pending list
run_job
signal scheduled fence
dequeue from pending list
free_job
update timestamp
Once a job is on the pending list its timestamp can be accessed which
can blow up if scheduled fence isn't signaled or more specifically unless
DMA_FENCE_FLAG_TIMESTAMP_BIT is set. Logically it makes sense for the
job to be in the pending list before run_job and signal the scheduled
fence after run_job so I think we need to live with this race.

Yes, free_job might not be safe to run in parallel with run_job
depending on the driver vfuncs. Mention this in the cover letter.
Certainly this should be safe in the scheduler code though and I think
it will be after fixing this.

Ah, I see that AMDGPU uses this. Previously just checked the scheduler
code.
The below patch should work just fine then.
