[PATCH 1/9] drm/amdgpu:cleanup hw fence get&put

In amdgpu_fence_process it shouldn't put the signaled hw fence and set
RCU pointer to NULL, instead the more reasonable sequence is just leave
the RCU be there untouched, and:
1) Either driver_fini() should put this RCU fence or
2) New hw fence emitting should take the RCU slot and put the old hw fence.

mapping between get & put on hw fence is:

Get						Put
fence_emit:fence_init	--->	free_job:put job->fence
	       		--->	run_job:put job->fence //GPU RESET case

fence_emit:rcu_assign_pointer	---> fence_driver_fini:put ring->fence_drv.fences[j]
				---> fence_emit:put(old) //after fence_wait(old)

run_job:job->fence=fence_get()	--> sched_main:put(fence)
				--> job_recovery:put(fence) //for GPU RESET case

sched_main:parent=fence_get()	--> sched_fence_free:put(fence->parent)
sched_job_recovery:parent=fence_get() --> sched_hw_job_reset:put(s_job->s_fence->parent) // for GPU RESET case
