Yintian Tao 77bb2f204f drm/scheduler: fix rare NULL ptr race
There is one one corner case at dma_fence_signal_locked
which will raise the NULL pointer problem just like below.
->dma_fence_signal
    ->dma_fence_signal_locked
	->test_and_set_bit
here trigger dma_fence_release happen due to the zero of fence refcount.

->dma_fence_put
    ->dma_fence_release
	->drm_sched_fence_release_scheduled
	    ->call_rcu
here make the union fled “cb_list” at finished fence
to NULL because struct rcu_head contains two pointer
which is same as struct list_head cb_list

Therefore, to hold the reference of finished fence at drm_sched_process_job
to prevent the null pointer during finished fence dma_fence_signal

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
