When we merge several fences, if all of them are signaled already, we still keep one of them. So instead of using add_fence(), which will not increase the refcount of signaled fences, we should explicitly call fence_get() for the fence we are keeping. This patch fixes a kernel panic that can be triggered by creating a fence that is expired (or increasing the timeline until it expires), then creating a merged fence out of it, and deleting the merged fence. This will make the original expired fence's refcount go to zero.
