The copied sync_pt was activated immediately. If the sync_pt was signaled before the entire merge was completed, the new fence's pt_list could be iterated over while it is still in the process of being created. Moving the the sync_pt_activate call for all new sync_pts to after both the sync_fence_copy_pts and the sync_fence_merge_pts calls ensure that the pt_list is complete and immutable before it can be reached from the timeline's active list.
