Nicolai Hähnle 7a42e7cd29 drm/amdgpu: hold reference to fences in amdgpu_sa_bo_new (v2)
commit a8d81b3626 upstream.

An arbitrary amount of time can pass between spin_unlock and
fence_wait_any_timeout, so we need to ensure that nobody frees the
fences from under us.

A stress test (rapidly starting and killing hundreds of glxgears
instances) ran into a deadlock in fence_wait_any_timeout after
about an hour, and this race condition appears to be a plausible
cause.

v2: agd: rebase on upstream
