As mentioned in the previous patch, this flag should just signal that userspace
wants to receive a BUF_QUEUED event with the out-fence for this buffer. It's up
to the driver to ensure the correct ordering of the events.

I'm missing documentation for the new fence_fd field.

It should mention that fence_fd is ignored if the IN_FENCE isn't set. Applications
will set fence_fd (aka reserved2) to 0, which should be fine as long as IN_FENCE
isn't set.

Could you move this up one line? It's easier to parse this diff if it is clear
that fence_fd replaced reserved2.
