Subject: [REGRESSION BISECTED] 6.8-rc1 - Wayland hangs when connecting via VNC
 or RDP

When I attempt to connect via VNC or RDP to my Ubuntu desktop, the Wayland
server seems to hang. The desktop GUI no longer works either locally or
remotely. I can still log in via ssh, so the system is still alive,
but the GUI is
frozen. If I boot into Xorg instead, everything works fine. Kernel 6.7
works fine
also.

I bisected this to commit f7fe64ad0f22 "drm/sched: Split free_job into
own work item".
That commit does not revert cleanly however.

I don't see anything in dmesg when this happens. Here is a snippet from
journalctl when it happens:
Jan 23 16:14:30 paulz-Precision-5820-Tower systemd[2826]: Started

This is on an x86_64 Xeon system running Ubuntu 22.04.3.  Any hints on how to
debug this further? Is there a way to turn on additional debug prints for this?

Thanks,
Paul
