Subject: [PATCH] dma-buf/fence: Sparse wants __rcu on the object itself
Mime-version: 1.0

Git-commit: 5f72db59160c697d1dec3f6074dba72bd834c695
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
References: bsc#794563

In order to silence sparse in dma_fence_get_rcu_safe(), we need to mark
the incoming fence object as being RCU protected and not the pointer to
the object.
