From: Gustavo Padovan <gustavo.padovan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Explicit synchronization benefits a lot from ordered queues, they fit
better in a pipeline with DRM for example so create a opt-in way for
drivers notify videobuf2 that the queue is unordered.
Drivers don't need implement it if the queue is ordered.
