Various projects desire a mechanism for managing dependencies between
work items asynchronously. This can also include work items across
complete different and independent systems. For example, an
application wants to retreive a frame from a video in device,
using it for rendering on a GPU then send it to the video out device
for display all without having to stall waiting for completion along
the way. The sync framework allows this. It encapsulates
synchronisation events in file descriptors. The application can
request a sync point for the completion of each piece of work. Drivers
should also take sync points in with each new work request and not
schedule the work to start until the sync has been signalled.

This patch adds sync framework support to the exec buffer IOCTL. A
sync point can be passed in to stall execution of the batch buffer
until signalled. And a sync point can be returned after each batch
buffer submission which will be signalled upon that batch buffer's
completion.

At present, the input sync point is simply waited on synchronously
inside the exec buffer IOCTL call. Once the GPU scheduler arrives,
this will be handled asynchronously inside the scheduler and the IOCTL
can return without having to wait.

Note also that the scheduler will re-order the execution of batch
buffers, e.g. because a batch buffer is stalled on a sync point and
cannot be submitted yet but other, independent, batch buffers are
being presented to the driver. This means that the timeline within the
sync points returned cannot be global to the engine. Instead they must
be kept per context per engine (the scheduler may not re-order batches
within a context). Hence the timeline cannot be based on the existing
seqno values but must be a new implementation.

This patch is a port of work by several people that has been pulled
across from Android. It has been updated several times across several
patches. Rather than attempt to port each individual patch, this
version is the finished product as a single patch. The various
contributors/authors along the way (in addition to myself) were:

I am not sure calling system call functions from driver code will be allowed. that's why I was doing fd_install only when sure everything went OK.
