[PATCH] dma-buf: Wait on the reservation object when sync'ing before CPU access

Rendering operations to the dma-buf are tracked implicitly via the
reservation_object (dmabuf->resv). This is used to allow poll() to
wait upon outstanding rendering (or just query the current status of
rendering). The dma-buf sync ioctl allows userspace to prepare the
dma-buf for CPU access, which should include waiting upon rendering.
(Some drivers may need to do more work to ensure that the dma-buf mmap
is coherent as well as complete.)

I'm wondering whether it makes sense just to always do the wait first.
It is one of the first operations every driver has to make. A driver
that wants to implement it differently (e.g. they can special case
native waits) will still require a wait on the reservation object to
finish external rendering.
