As Steven explained, seems the same job was submitted on both HW slots,
and then when timeout occurs each thread calls panfrost_job_timedout
which leads to drm_sched_stop() on the first call and on the
second call the job was already freed.

Steven proposed a working fix, and this one does the same but on
the drm_sched side. This one looks cleaner, but panfrost should
not call drm_sched_stop() twice for the same job.
