The thing is, you can't do this in drm/scheduler. At least not without
splitting up the dma_fence in the kernel into separate memory fences

I'm starting to think this thread needs its own glossary ...
I propose we use 'residency fence' for execution fences which enact memory-residency operations, e.g. faulting in a page ultimately depending on GPU work retiring.
And 'value fence' for the pure-userspace model suggested by timeline semaphores, i.e. fences being (*addr == val) rather than being able to look at ctx seqno.
Cheers,
Daniel
