Hi Alex/Christian,

This patch is to put drm_sched_stop to stop scheduler before amdgpu_fence_wait_empty, otherwise, there is possibly a race problem that drm scheduler will keep submitting commands to hardware in suspend, so amdgpu_fence_wait_empty has no chance to get empty. This is based on the discussion with Andrey before.

In Brown's case, without this patch, his test can run well by a 10-hour duration. However, with this patch applied, issue occurs in under an hour. I guess this patch exposes another underlying problem, as if it's totally faulty, the test with the patch applied will break in the first round suspend/resume test instead of failed after several rounds suspend/resume test.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215315

Anyway, we can revert it for now, and I will continue the investigation to the root cause.

Regards,
Guchun

Thanks. I'll wait for feedback from Guchun and Andrey and if they are ok with it, I'll apply the revert.
