Sadly this regresses with i915 interop.

Starting subtest: 4KiB-tiny-vgem-blt-early-read-child
(gem_concurrent_blit:8309) CRITICAL: Test assertion failure function dmabuf_cmp_bo, file ../tests/i915/gem_concurrent_all.c:408:

and igt/prime_vgem

Can you please cc intel-gfx so CI can pick up these changes?
