3.x Regression: patched `Split/Second` + ReShade 6.8.0 Generic Depth crash

Split/Second has a consistently reproducible GPU hang when returning from a race to the main menu with DXVK 3.x and ReShade's Generic Depth add-on enabled.

Repro:

Start game -> Skip intro movies (mash enter) -> Main menu -> Quick play (arrow right, enter) -> Race (enter) -> Downtown Central (enter) -> Select car and start (enter) -> Skip mode description (enter)-> Skip map name (enter) -> Scene loads -> Pause (enter) -> Quit (arrow down x2) -> loading -> crash.

Windows recorded LiveKernelEvent 141 (VIDEO_ENGINE_TIMEOUT_DETECTED) after the DXVK 3.x hang. WER stop code: 0x141

The crash is reproducible with DXVK 3.x and with ReShade Generic Depth enabled (required). Disabling Generic Depth avoids the crash.

DXVK 2.7.1 does not face this issue.

Software information

Game: Split/Second (exe version 1.0.0.1, product version 1.3.8.0) DXVK file: /x32/d3d9.dll Mods:

• Holly/Patch (dinput8.dll, zipped)
• ReShade 6.8.0 with Vulkan with the Generic Depth add-on enabled.

Note: Holly/Patch is used for borderless/window and timing fixes; this race-to-menu crash is separate from its known video device Reset problem, where the game could freeze if backgrounded.

System information

• GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080
• Driver: 616.64
• DXVK versions: 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, 3.1

Apitrace files

Not provided yet. I am not sure whether a D3D9 apitrace would preserve the ReShade Generic Depth interaction required to reproduce the hang. I can try to provide one if it would still be useful.
