Thanks Neil, by guilty i meant the 'bad' job. I reviewed the code and
can't see anything suspicious for now. To help clarify could you please
provide ftrace log for this ? All the dma_fence and gpu_scheduler traces
can help. I usually just set them all up in one line using trace-cmd
utility like this before starting the run. If you have any relevant
traces in panfrost it aslo can be useful.

sudo trace-cmd start -e dma_fence -e gpu_scheduler
