The effect is complex, so I could not correlate to specific tests. Also, what I
wanted to fix isn't covered by the ITU conformance, its mostly resiliance
requirement. But this should remove some of the IOMMU fault on broken streams
and make it less likely to use references that don't exists or aren't set what
we expect. After this change, the driver was getting more stable, and results
was also more reproducible (specially in parallel decode case, which I use to
speed up testing).
