page-based iomem" from Jun 2, 2021, leads to the following Smatch

Passing a NULL for "fence" will crash.  The first place where it will
crash is in dma_resv_add_fence() where it does:

Indeed, and this has been discussed thoroughly on dri-devel lately. The 
bug was introduced in a recent patch that made NULL pointers here crash. 
Not the patch indicated.

Thanks,
