Well this is a very very bad idea, we made the same mistake with amdgpu 
as well.

It's true that you should not have any memory allocation in your run_job 
callback, but you could also just allocate the hw fence during job 
creation and initializing it later on.

I've suggested to embed the fence into the job for amdgpu because some 
people insisted of re-submitting jobs during timeout and GPU reset. This 
turned into a nightmare with tons of bug fixes on top of bug fixes on 
top of bug fixes because it messes up the job and fence lifetime as 
defined by the DRM scheduler and DMA-buf framework.

Luben is currently working on cleaning all this up.

Regards,
Christian.
