Yes :-/

Go for it. I think ideally we could get rid of the dma_fence_chain_ops
export. Btw similar situation exists for dma_fence_is_array, so maybe
check those out too.

I think if we do want an interface for drivers then really the only
thing that should be accessible is a dma_fence_is_container and a
dma_fence_container_for_each_fence. Really no one's business to dig
into deeper details (at least once your dma_resv series has landed).
