Since you're going to all the trouble of having distinct types of
sync_file:
- I think we should reject non-TYPE_FENCE sync_file in
  sync_file_get_fence. This is to make sure no one can pull existing
  userspace over the table. Fence vs. sema also have different semantics,
  so I expect we'll have separate cs flags anyway.

- Already mentioned in the drm_syncobj patch, but I'd reorder that one
  after this one here and restrict drm_syncobj to only TYPE_SEMA. At least
  I can't see any reason why you'd want to make a plain fence persistent
  using an idr, they're kinda ephemeral.

A few more minor nits below. Patch itself looks good, but I want to figure
the type confusion semantics out first.

Cheers, Daniel

Maybe mention here that this is only valid for TYPE_SEMA?

I think this could hide bugs, should we wrap it into a if(WARN_ON())?

Iirc you don't need the DOC: - kerneldoc should pick up #defines as-is.
You can iirc reference them from within kernel-doc using %DEFINED_THING.
