From: Gustavo Padovan <gustavo.pado...@collabora.com>

If userspace already dropped its own reference by closing the sw_sync
fence fd we might end up in a deadlock where
dma_fence_is_signaled_locked() will trigger the release of the fence a
thus try to hold the lock to remove the fence from the list.

We need to grab a reference to the fence before calling into this chain if
we want to avoid this issue.
