Functionally it's still correct, as we simply cycle through the array a
bit slower when a job takes multiple credits. It doesn't violate any
fundamental assumption. However, ...

... the tracking array is getting really big for drivers which allow
for a large number of credits. Worst cases in order are PVR with 64k
and nouveau with 1024 credits. The memory required to hold the pointers
to the fences, as well as referenced fences is huge.

I guess we need something more clever like a xarray to track the fences
and clean up signalled fences on each submit or something like that.
