One thing Xe really wants to do is use a shared lock for HW fences,
since our IRQ handler walks the pending fence list under the shared lock
and signals the fences. I don’t think it would be desirable to split
this into an IRQ handler list lock and individual fence locks.

It would be great if we could come up with a way to support this model,
ensure it's safe for module unload, and document it clearly.

I’ve thought of a few possible ideas:

- After a fence signals, the dma-fence core should not be allowed to touch
  the external lock.
- Only export HW fences to the DRM scheduler, which guarantees that after
  HW signaling, it won’t perform any dangerous operations (e.g., making a
  call that takes the external lock). This really isn't generic solution
  though.
- Create an embedded dma-fence spinlock structure with a refcount and a
  dma-fence flag indicating that the external lock is refcounted. In
  dma_fence_free, drop the lock’s refcount.

In all of the above cases, the rule is that all module fences must be
signaled before unloading.

Thoughts?
