What's missing?
* @status: Optional, only valid if < 0, must be set before calling
* dma_fence_signal, indicates that the fence has completed with an
* error.
dma-fence must then guarantee that is zeroed during init, then the
drivers can supply the optional information prior to calling
dma_fence_signal()
A dma_fence_set_status(fence, status) {
BUG_ON(test_bit(SIGNALED, &fence->flags);
BUG_ON(!IS_ERR_VALUE(status));
BUG_ON(fence->status);
fence->status = status;
} ?
