If V4L2_BUF_FLAG_OUT_FENCE flag is present on the QBUF call we create
an out_fence and send its fd to userspace in the fence_fd field as a
return arg for the QBUF call.

The fence is signaled on buffer_done(), when the job on the buffer is
finished.

v11: - Return fence_fd to userpace only in the QBUF ioctl.
- Rework implementation to avoid storing the sync_file
as state, which is not really needed.

v10: - use -EIO for fence error (Hans Verkuil)
- add comment around fence context creation (Hans Verkuil)

v9: - remove in-fences changes from this patch (Alex Courbot)
- improve fence context creation (Hans Verkuil)
- clean up out fences if vb2_core_qbuf() fails (Hans Verkuil)

v8: - return 0 as fence_fd if OUT_FENCE flag not used (Mauro)
- fix crash when checking not using fences in vb2_buffer_done()

v7: - merge patch that add the infrastructure to out-fences into
this one (Alex Courbot)
- Do not install the fd if there is no fence. (Alex Courbot)
- do not report error on requeueing, just WARN_ON_ONCE() (Hans)

v6: - get rid of the V4L2_EVENT_OUT_FENCE event. We always keep the
ordering in vb2 for queueing in the driver, so the event is not
necessary anymore and the out_fence_fd is sent back to userspace
on QBUF call return arg
- do not allow requeueing with out-fences, instead mark the buffer
with an error and wake up to userspace.
- send the out_fence_fd back to userspace on the fence_fd field

v5: - delay fd_install to DQ_EVENT (Hans)
- if queue is fully ordered send OUT_FENCE event right away
(Brian)
- rename 'q->ordered' to 'q->ordered_in_driver'
- merge change to implement OUT_FENCE event here

v4: - return the out_fence_fd in the BUF_QUEUED event(Hans)

v3: - add WARN_ON_ONCE(q->ordered) on requeueing (Hans)
- set the OUT_FENCE flag if there is a fence pending (Hans)
- call fd_install() after vb2_core_qbuf() (Hans)
- clean up fence if vb2_core_qbuf() fails (Hans)
- add list to store sync_file and fence for the next queued buffer

v2: check if the queue is ordered.

I think you should check the return value here. fd_install() doesn't
seem to do any validation. Best case you hit a BUG_ON(), worst case
you trash something random :-(

Isn't queueing_started always true here? Seems to be set in
vb2_core_qbuf() unconditionally, before vb2_setup_out_fence() is
called.

If the context is shared, we should increment the seqno for every
fence.
