There's actually a spare bit in fence->flags you can use for this.

#define POLL_ENABLED FENCE_FLAG_USER_BITS

if (test_bit(POLL_ENABLED, &sync_file->fence->flags))
	fence_remove_callback(sync_file->fence, &sync_file->cb);

...

if (!test_and_set_bit(POLL_ENABLED, &sync_file->fence->flags)) {
	if (fence_add_callback(sync_file->fence, &sync_file->cb,
			       fence_check_cb_func) < 0)
		wake_up_all(&sync_file->wq);
}

Saves adding a raw atomic.
