Here, we are signaling the finished fence and dma_fence_signal is 
checking the reference.

So we do not need to check here.

We can use  'drm_sched_fence_set_parent' but we need to add extra NULL 
check before

adding in the callback otherwise add-callback will throw the warning 
message every time.

If I add NULL check then will never get any callback warning message for 
setting NULL parent fence.

So I have kept separate functions.

I will call the drm_sched_job_done_cb(NULL, &s_fence->cb) callback.
