This patchset implements a request made by Xaver Hugl about wedge events:

"I'd really like to have the PID of the client that triggered the GPU
reset, so that we can kill it if multiple resets are triggered in a
row (or switch to software rendering if it's KWin itself) and show a
user-friendly notification about why their app(s) crashed, but that
can be added later."

For testing, I've used amdgpu's debug_mask options debug_disable_soft_recovery
and debug_disable_gpu_ring_reset to test both wedge event paths in the driver.
To trigger a ring timeout, I've used this app:

Thanks!
