I suppose I have the explicit sync case more in mind, where the
dependent fence ends up being a chain or array (if userspace is
merging fence fd's).

This was the kinda weird case I wanted to make sure I wasn't breaking.
I remember seeing something fly by for this, but can't find it now or
remember what amdgpu's solution was..

I'm going to assume unnecessary until someone speaks up with their
weird specific case ;-)
