Hi Gustavo,

Receive in-fence from userspace and add support for waiting on them
before queueing the buffer to the driver. Buffers are only queued
to the driver once they are ready. A buffer is ready when its
in-fence signals.

For queues that require vb2 to queue buffers to the v4l2 driver in same
order they are received from userspace we use fence_array to keep that
ordering. Basically we create a fence_array that contains both the current
fence and the fence from the previous buffer (which might be a fence array
as well). The base fence class for the fence_array becomes the new buffer
fence, waiting on that one guarantees that it won't be queued out of
order.

The API sounds/looks good to me, makes sense to let driver opt in/out
via the ordered_in_vb2 thing. Thanks for implementing it!


v5:	- use fence_array to keep buffers ordered in vb2 core when
	needed (Brian Stark)
	- keep backward compatibility on the reserved2 field (Brian Stark)
	- protect fence callback removal with lock (Brian Stark)

Brian Starkey, but close ;-)


v4:
	- Add a comment about dma_fence_add_callback() not returning a
	error (Hans)
	- Call dma_fence_put(vb->in_fence) if fence signaled (Hans)
	- select SYNC_FILE under config VIDEOBUF2_CORE (Hans)
	- Move dma_fence_is_signaled() check to __enqueue_in_driver() (Hans)
	- Remove list_for_each_entry() in __vb2_core_qbuf() (Hans)
	-  Remove if (vb->state != VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED) from
	vb2_start_streaming() (Hans)
	- set IN_FENCE flags on __fill_v4l2_buffer (Hans)
	- Queue buffers to the driver as soon as they are ready (Hans)
	- call fill_user_buffer() after queuing the buffer (Hans)
	- add err: label to clean up fence
	- add dma_fence_wait() before calling vb2_start_streaming()

v3:	- document fence parameter
	- remove ternary if at vb2_qbuf() return (Mauro)
	- do not change if conditions behaviour (Mauro)

v2:
	- fix vb2_queue_or_prepare_buf() ret check
	- remove check for VB2_MEMORY_DMABUF only (Javier)
	- check num of ready buffers to start streaming
	- when queueing, start from the first ready buffer
	- handle queue cancel

I think there's still some races on vb->in_fence. Couldn't the
callback on any of the buffers in the queued_list have their callback
run at any moment?

That could make this loop do bad things, and similarly the loop in
vb2_start_streaming() which calls __enqueue_in_driver().

Just a stylistic thing - you could invert this conditional and return

I'm not sure if it's right to get a new fence_context every time here.
The comment on dma_fence_context_counter sounds like the vb2_queue
should have a single context of its own.

+			if (!arr) {
+				kfree(fences);

+			fence = dma_fence_get(q->last_fence);
+		}
+
+		q->last_fence = dma_fence_get(fence);

Seems like the refcounting isn't quite right here.

If you land in "else if (!fence && q->last_fence)", then "fence" gets
a new reference to q->last_fence, and you take another one here -
which looks like one too many.

I _think_ the right thing to do is just give the previous reference on
q->last_fence to "fence", without taking a new one:

	} else if (!fence && q->last_fence) {
		fence = q->last_fence;
	}

That's analogous to the other path where fence is not-NULL, and the
fence-array takes ownership of the existing references on fence and
q->last_fence, without taking new references.

Please double check my logic though!

Between here, __set_in_fence() and vb2_qbuf() there's a reference
leaked on "fence" in the case of error. I'm not sure what semantics
you'd like, but it should be clear whose responsibility it is to clear
up "fence" if __set_in_fence() fails (at the moment, looks like no-one
does).
