Would this memset still be needed if we didn't check for nulls in info->status and info->name ?

Seems to me that it could be skipped in that case.

These members always get written by the fence ioctl, I'm not sure it adds value to have them explicitly zero'd out by userspace.

This check is unneeded, it will happen in the copy_to_user call anyway.

Maybe check for in.len < size, and set set to size?

Not sure if len adds anything here, userspace knows to allocate num_fences * sizeof(struct sync_fence_info);

It could probably be removed since num_fences would do the same.
