How is any of this building then?  Does no one actually use
dma-fence-unwrap.c?

f781f661e8c99 still uses an option to dma_fence_allocate_private_stub():
-               return dma_fence_get_stub();
+               return dma_fence_allocate_private_stub(timestamp);

So backporting that will continue the breakage, right?

confused,
