You mentioned that this is a problem in the last patch and if you ask me 
that's just a bug or at least very inconsistent.

See dma_resv_wait_timeout() always waits for all fences, including the 
exclusive one even if shared ones are present. But 
dma_resv_test_signaled() ignores the exclusive one if shared ones are 
present.

The only other driver I could find trying to make use of this is nouveau 
and I already provided a fix for this as well.

I just think that this is the more defensive approach to fix this and 
have at least the core functions consistent on the handling.

Christian.
