Hmm... are we willing to support the case where just some
buffers have fences? Why?
In any case, we should add a notice at the documentation telling
about what happens if not all buffers have fences, and if fences
are required to be setup before starting streaming, or if it is
possible to dynamically change the fances behavior while streaming.
