    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
