There is another cause for soft lock-up of GPU in empty ring-buffer: race between GPU executing last commands and CPU checking ring for emptiness. On GPU side IRQ for retire is triggered by CACHE_FLUSH_TS event and RPTR shadow (which is used to check ring emptiness) is updated a bit later from CP_CONTEXT_SWITCH_YIELD. Thus if GPU is executing its last commands slow enough or we check that ring too fast we will miss a chance to trigger switch to lower priority ring because current ring isn't empty just yet. This can escalate to lock-up situation described in previous patch. To work-around this issue we keep track of last submit sequence number for each ring and compare it with one written to memptrs from GPU during execution of CACHE_FLUSH_TS event.
