That is not correct either.

It must look like this:
>         /* always sync to the exclusive fence */
>         f = reservation_object_get_excl(resv);
>         r = amdgpu_sync_fence(adev, sync, f);

Otherwise you ignore all shared fences and completely mess up the 
dependencies handling.

I suggest to just revert the patch which originally changed the code 
away from what it looks like on amd-staging-drm-next.
