[PATCH] drm/virtio: clean out_fence on complete_submit

The removed line prevents the following cleanup function
to execute a dma_fence_put on the out_fence to free its
memory, producing the following output in kmemleak:

This memleak will grow quickly, being possible to see the
following line in dmesg after few minutes of life in the
virtual machine:

[  706.217388] kmemleak: 10731 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)

The patch will remove the line to allow the cleanup
function do its job.
