Well that was a bad idea. We already used 0 for the always signaled case 
IIRC.

> But if you want to use ~0 presenting latest sequence, that will demand many changes in UMD side ...
Please do so, using 0 clearly wasn't a good idea. And we should also add 
a define for this in amdgpu_drm.h.

We should probably send all interfaces to the public list for review, 
even when we aren't going to push them upstream.

Christian.
