Good catch, but the solution is a clear NAK.

drm_sched_entity_add_dependency_cb() can result in setting 
entity->dependency to NULL. That in turn can lead to a memory leak 
because we call the _put with a NULL fence.

Instead we should rather call trace_drm_sched_job_wait_dep() before even 
calling drm_sched_entity_add_dependency_cb(). This is also cleaner 
because we want to trace which dependencies the driver gave to the 
scheduler and not which we actually needed to add a callback to.

Regards,
Christian.
