For dma_fence_is_signaled signaling critical path annotations are an
annoying cause of false positives when using dma_fence_is_signaled and
indirectly higher level helpers such as dma_resv_test_signaled etc.

Drop the critical path annotation since the "is signaled" API does not
guarantee to ever change the signaled status anyway.

We do that by adding a low level _dma_fence_signal helper and use it from
dma_fence_is_signaled.

I have been considering dropping the signaling from the dma_fence_is_signaled() function altogether.

Doing this together with the spin locking we have in the dma_fence is just utterly nonsense since the purpose of the external spinlock is to keep the signaling in order while this here defeats that.

The quick check is ok I think, but signaling the dma_fence and issuing the callbacks should always come from the interrupt handler.
