memcmp() does not account for the case where 2 jobs contain exactly the
same perfmons but in a different order. This being said, it's rather
unlikely to happen, so maybe we can accept the perf penalty for that
case.

Yes, all numbers above 0xfff are bifrost GPUs. I'll add a macro.

Will copy the errata.

Actually, that one is from me, hence the 'not sure why' part :).

Others are using the same "if data passed is smaller than expected
size, unassigned fields are zeroed". That allows us to extend a struct
without breaking the ABI as long as zero is a valid value and does not
change the behavior compared to when the field was not present.

This is the case here: perfmon_handle_count = 0 means no perfmon
attached to the job, so the driver is acting like it previously was.

No need to get that part merged in the initial patch series IMO.

Thanks a lot for your reviews. That was pretty damn fast!
