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.
v5: go back to a bitfield property for the unordered property.
v4: rename it to vb2_ops_is_unordered() (Hans Verkuil)
v3: - make it bool (Hans)
- create vb2_ops_set_unordered() helper
v2: improve comments for is_unordered flag (Hans Verkuil)
