Add a videobuf2-fence.h header file that contains different helpers
for DMA buffer sharing explicit fence support in videobuf2.

It is probably not a good idea to define that struct here since it will be
deduplicated for every source file that includes it.
Maybe change it to a simple declaration, and move the definition to
videobuf2-core.c or a dedicated videobuf2-fence.c file?

Not sure we gain a lot by having this function static inline, but your call.
Looking at the following patch, since it seems that this function is only
to be
called from vb2_setup_out_fence() anyway, you may as well make it static in
videobuf2-core.c or even inline it in vb2_setup_out_fence() - it would only
add a few extra lines to this function.
