We have to distinguish what we are talking about here. For the JobQueue, it takes over a cloned DmaFence and stuffs that into its own list. Problem solved. Whether the driver has other clones of that fence in other list is not relevant because it's not the same list head. JQ's lists and list heads are internal. I don't see a problem. P.
