Since sometimes a lock is required to initialize a seqno fence, and it might be desirable not to hold that lock while performing memory allocations, split the lrc seqno fence creation up into an allocation phase and an initialization phase. Since lrc seqno fences under the hood are hw_fences, do the same for these and remove the xe_hw_fence_create() function since it is not used anymore.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
