The above code sounds weird: it is called even if the user is not
using fences.

You should probably be doing something like:

if (fence || q->last_fence) {
vb->in_fence = __set_in_fence(q, vb, fence);
...
}

I guess the case where fences is not used is not covered here.

You probably should add a check at __get_num_ready_buffers(q)
as well, making it just return q->queued_count if fences isn't
used.
