Since its inception, the GPU scheduler can leak memory if the driver calls drm_sched_fini() while there are still jobs in flight. The simplest way to solve this in a backwards compatible manner is by adding a new callback, drm_sched_backend_ops.cancel_job(), which instructs the driver to signal the hardware fence associated with the job. Afterwards, the scheduler can safely use the established free_job() callback for freeing the job. Implement the new backend_ops callback cancel_job().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
