[PATCH 1/3] drm/vc4: Fix spurious GPU resets due to BO reuse.

From: Eric Anholt
Date: Mon Feb 08 2016 - 19:20:08 EST


We were tracking the "where are the head pointers pointing" globally,
so if another job reused the same BOs and execution was at the same
point as last time we checked, we'd stop and trigger a reset even
though the GPU had made progress.
