This one should go in panfrost_job_hw_submit() IMO, otherwise you're
enabling the cycle-counter before the job has its dependencies met, and
depending on what the job depends on, it might take some time.

I think I'd move this panfrost_cycle_counter_put() to
panfrost_job_handle_{err,done}(), to release the counter as soon as
we're done executing the job. We also need to make sure we release
cycle counter refs in the reset path (here [1]), to keep get/put
balanced when jobs are resubmitted.
