Hi Greg,

yes that's an already known issue. Feel free to revert that one for now.

I got it on my TODO list to provide a fixed patch for older kernel, but
that can take a while.

For the background Nicolais patch is correct, but assumes that
radeon_fence_unref() can safely take NULL as the fence which is not the
case for older kernels.

Regards,
Christian.
