Hi,

backporting commit 187916e6ed9d ("drm/amdgpu: install stub fence into
potential unused fence pointers") to stable kernels resulted in lots
of WARNINGs on some devices. In my case I was getting 3 WARNINGs per
second (~150 lines logged every second). Commit ended up being
reverted for stable but it exposed a potential problem. My messages
log size was reaching gigabytes and was running my /tmp/ out of space.

Could someone take a look at amdgpu_sync_keep_later /
dma_fence_is_later and make sure its logging is rate limited to avoid
such situations in the future, please?
