Hm yeah. Up to you how you want to paint this shed, I think either is fine.

Yes. I thought I've checked that I put the _arm() in the right spot,
but I guess I screwed up and you need the fence before the point where
I've put the job_arm()? And yes the error path cannot be avoided for
out-fences, that's what I tried to explain in the commit message.

Maybe? I'm not sure whether the scheduler gets confused about the gap
and freak out abou that. I'm fairly new to that code and learning
(which is part why I'm working on it). Since you look up in
fences/syncobj after job_init() it should be pretty easy to whip up a
testcase and see what happens. Also as long as nothing fails you won't
see an issue, that's for sure.
