[PATCH v4 06/14] dma-buf/sync_file: Support (E)POLLPRI

[Rob Clark]

From: Rob Clark <robdclark@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Allow userspace to use the EPOLLPRI/POLLPRI flag to indicate an urgent
wait (as opposed to a "housekeeping" wait to know when to cleanup after
some work has completed).  Usermode components of GPU driver stacks
often poll() on fence fd's to know when it is safe to do things like
free or reuse a buffer, but they can also poll() on a fence fd when
waiting to read back results from the GPU.  The EPOLLPRI/POLLPRI flag
lets the kernel differentiate these two cases.
