Turn the reserved2 field into fence_fd that we will use to send
an in-fence to the kernel and return an out-fence from the kernel to
userspace.
Two new flags were added, V4L2_BUF_FLAG_IN_FENCE, that should be used
when sending a fence to the kernel to be waited on, and
V4L2_BUF_FLAG_OUT_FENCE, to ask the kernel to give back an out-fence.
It seems a bit off to me to add this to the uapi, and document it,
before any of the implementation is present in the kernel.
Wouldn't it be better to move this patch to be the last one, after all
of the implementation is done?
Cheers,
-Brian
v2: add documentation
