Whenever we walk along the dma-fence-chain, we prune signaled links to keep the chain nice and tidy. This leads to situations where we can prune a link and report the earlier fence as the target seqno -- violating our own consistency checks that the seqno is not more advanced than the last element in a dma-fence-chain. Report a NULL fence and success if the seqno has already been signaled.

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.
