[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/2] nouveau: avoid leaking fences while waiting

[Ilia Mirkin]

This fixes a memory leak in some situations. Also avoids emitting an
extra fence if the kick handler does the call to nouveau_fence_next
itself.

TBH I'm pretty confused by the whole fence refcounting logic and its
interaction with emits, updates, etc. However valgrind was happy with
this. But it wasn't happy when I was doing nouveau_fence_wait from
nv50_draw_elements, saying that the fence allocated by nouveau_fence_new was
leaked. (Note that the kick handler when doing vbo stuff does NOT do
nouveau_fence_next on its own... but adding that there still didn't fix all my
issues, nor is it likely desirable.)
