Subject: [PATCH 4.17 155/336] drm/nouveau: remove fence wait code from deferred client work handler

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 11e451e74050d9e9030581ce40337838acfcea5b ]

Fences attached to deferred client work items now originate from channels
belonging to the client, meaning we can be certain they've been signalled
before we destroy a client.

This closes a race that could happen if the dma_fence_wait_timeout() call
didn't succeed.  When the fence was later signalled, a use-after-free was
possible.
