Uh I don't get this one? I thought the only problem with nested fences is
the signalling recursion, which we work around with the irq_work?

Also if there's really an issue with dma_fence_array fences, then that
warning should be on the dma_resv kerneldoc, not somewhere hidden like
this. And finally I really don't see what can go wrong, sure we'll end up
with the same fence once in the dma_resv_list and then once more in the
fence array. But they're all refcounted, so really shouldn't matter.

The code itself looks correct, but me not understanding what even goes
wrong here freaks me out a bit.

I guess something to figure out next year, I kinda hoped I could squeeze a
review in before I disappear :-/
