But doesn't this make it so that we may not detect a hang unless more
work gets submitted constantly? Eg.
1. execbuffer batch 1 -> queue hangcheck schedules work
2. execbuffer batch 2 -> queue hangcheck does nothing
3. execbuffer batch 3 -> queue hangcheck does nothing
4. hangcheck expires and sees progress up to batch 2 -> everything is fine
5. batch 3 hangs
