The original point I made in the bug report was that this bug is not about the
mechanical hardware glitch. It as about the driver being in what is obviously a
failure mode and attempting a recovery that fails and leaves the system in
unusable state. The error recovery paths of any driver should be its most
resilient components. Especially when the driver is controlling a part of the
primary user interface to it.

To pose another question. Why, when the driver has the information to tell it
that the GPU is irrevocably stalled, does it attempt a soft restart and leave
the system in an unusable state.
