It's not in the reservation object.

That's not the purpose of these fences, though. They exist to provide
reference counting on the backing store, along side the migration fence.
It's extra detail tacked on the equivalent of bo->moving.
That is not to say that one could build up an async migration chain which
form a graph back to these, that chain could only be formed once the
operation itself has been published in the dma_resv though.
