Subject: [PATCH 12/30] staging: sync: Reorder sync_fence_release

From: Erik Gilling <konkers@...roid.com>

Previously fence's pts were freed before the were the fence was removed from the
global fence list.  This led to a race with the debugfs support where it would
iterate over sync_pts that had been freed.
