Hi Gustavo,

thank you for the review.

Do you have a pointer where I could read up on how this should be done?

We do that already. err_submit_objects is an unfortunate name for patch
review, but the out label at the end of the function falls right through
to it.

We pass through here in the non-error case, too.

I just followed Rob's lead. I'm not sure if there may be a reason to
submit an in fence still keep implicit fencing enabled at the same time,
or to allow a submit without any fencing whatsoever. Maybe for testing
purposes?
I'm happy to drop the NO_IMPLICIT flag if there is no need for it.

Philipp
