commit dc3421560a67361442f33ec962fc6dd48895a0df upstream.
When considering whether to mark one context as stopped and another as started we need to look at whether the previous and new _contexts_ are different and not just requests. Otherwise the software tracked context start time was incorrectly updated to the most recent lite-restore time- stamp, which was in some cases resulting in active time going backward, until the context switch (typically the heartbeat pulse) would synchronise with the hardware tracked context runtime. Easiest use case to observe this behaviour was with a full screen clients with close to 100% engine load.
