The issue is that when enabling signalling in sync driver we put fence
on an internal list in the driver and there is no way of taking it off
this list, except when it is signalled. The driver, when destroying
the fence, checks if the fence is not on this list (as a sanity
measure) and that produces the backtrace in the commit log.
IOW for some drivers we need an "undo" for enable_signaling() callback
so that drivers can maintain consistent internal state.
Thanks.
