I have tested this on 5.8.0-rc6 w/ an RX 480 for 8 hours and I have not had
the crash described in the Bugzilla thread. I will also be running this
patch on my kernel for the next couple of days to further confirm that this
is working. In addition, I will ask the users in the Bugzilla thread to
test this patch and confirm that it works.
My previous attempt to patch this bug ("amdgpu_dm: fix nonblocking atomic
commit use-after-free") [1] was unsuccessful and this patch is meant to
replace it. That said, this isn't necessarily a v2 of that patch, since
this patch works very differently from the other patch.
