A compromise would be a flag to create/reuse > handle (or if handle=0, create, if handle!=0 resuse). The interface is consistent for the objects. With a sync_fd import you import the state into an existing syncobj. With a syncobj import you import the object into the current process state (so get a new handle). I can't think of a use case for anything else, maybe having a sync_fd state imported into a new syncobj? but not sure it really helps. Userspace should be using different paths to get to these interfaces.
