Good catch.

But that's a really ugly approach.
Either nouveau shouldn't implement the signaled callback or make sure that when
returning true from the signaled callback the fence is also removed from the
pending list.

Yeah, that's most likely not correct. My educated guess is that the bug was
always there just never discovered.
