This issue happens when the file descriptor is closed before the jobs submitted by it are completed. When the job completes, we update the global GPU stats and the per-fd GPU stats, which are exposed through fdinfo. If the file descriptor was closed, then the struct v3d_file_priv and its stats were already freed and we can't update the per-fd stats.

Therefore, if the file descriptor was already closed, don't u ---truncated---
