In Mika's reset stats test we've set stop_rings after execbuf so that we
could submit fancy stuff like endless loops with batch-chaining while
still shutting up the kernel's output for real hangs.

The nice benefit is that looking at stop_rings then gives you an easy way
to double-check from the test that it all worked out since it's getting
auto-cleared.

In any case we have a fairly great mess here :(
