Well exactly that's the problem. The scheduler is supposed to shoveling 
more jobs at us until it is empty.

Thinking more about it we will then keep some dma_fence instance 
unsignaled and that is and extremely bad idea since it can lead to 
deadlocks during suspend.

So this patch here is an absolute clear NAK from my side. If amdgpu is 
doing something similar that is a severe bug and needs to be addressed 
somehow.
