There is also something else going on with the GC600 - 5.4 worked fine,
5.8 doesn't - my 2D Xorg driver gets stuck waiting on a BO after just
a couple of minutes.  Looking in debugfs, there's a whole load of BOs
that are listed as "active", yet the GPU is idle:

My guess is there's something up with the way a job completes that's
causing the BOs not to be marked inactive.  I haven't yet been able
to debug any further.
