Fence emission can flush the push buffer, which through flush_notify
unreferences recently emitted fence. If ref count is increased after
fence emission, unreference deletes the fence, which causes SIGSEGV.

Backtrace:
nouveau_fence_del
nouveau_fence_ref
nouveau_fence_next
nouveau_pushbuf_flush
MARK_RING
nv50_screen_fence_emit
nouveau_fence_emit
nv50_flush

This bug manifested as an assertion failure in nouveau_fence.c, because
SIGSEGV handler tried to shutdown the application and used messed up
fence.

This issue was reported by Maxim Levitsky.

Note: This is a candidate for the 7.11 branch.
