We also use this from reset to rewrite the old fences, and we know there
we can hit the delayed fence write [4fc788f5ee3d]. It would also be
possible to hit it on suspend as well.

I've been thinking about whether we should be bothering to write the
fence registers with the correct value or just cancel the fences. But we
have to restore anything that is pinned, and we have to write something
into the fences (just to be safe), and if we have to write something we
may as well use the most recent information we have as that has a good
chance of being used again.

Long story short, I don't have a better idea for restoring or avoiding
the restore of fences.
