Thanks Christian, that's a valid point.
Do you think we should worry about an actual perf impact here?

If we want to avoid adding an extra fence, then an alternative solution could 
be to include the emitted commands in the ib_wptr of the job's own fence when 
a VM fence was not emitted.

What do you guys think?

Thanks,
