ring_idx = 0 is fine, but without VIRTGPU_EXECBUF_RING_IDX that means
the global timeline.

It's an additional check for where the userspace specifies they want
to use per-context fencing and polling, but actually uses the global
timeline.  Userspace never does this since it wouldn't work, so it's a
bit of a pathological edge case check than any UAPI change.

Used with the following flow:

If you wish to test, please do apply this change:

Sommelier isn't formally packaged yet in the Linux distro style and it
always specifies RING_IDX when polling, so no regressions here.  Maybe
a separate commit is overkill (since the 2nd commit would delete the
newly added checks), what about just more detail in the commit
message?

It doesn't seem like venus enables POLL_RINGS_MASK to poll since that
param is zero?
