backporting commit 187916e6ed9d ("drm/amdgpu: install stub fence into
potential unused fence pointers") to stable kernels resulted in lots of
WARNINGs on some devices. In my case I was getting 3 WARNINGs per
second (~150 lines logged every second). Commit ended up being reverted for
stable but it exposed a potential problem. My messages log size was reaching
gigabytes and was running my /tmp/ out of space.

Could someone take a look at amdgpu_sync_keep_later / dma_fence_is_later
and make sure its logging is rate limited to avoid such situations in the future,
please?

Revert in linux-5.15.x:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=li
nux-5.15.y&id=fae2d591f3cb31f722c7f065acf586830eab8c2a

openSUSE bug report:

These patches were never intended for stable.  They were picked up by Sasha's stable autoselect tools and automatically applied to stable kernels.

Are you saying massive WARNINGs in dma_fence_is_later() can't happen
in any other case? I understand it was an incorrect backport action but
I thought we may learn from it and still add some rate limit.
