[PATCH v3 0/3] drm/amdgpu: Explicit sync for GEM VA operations

[Friedrich Vock]

In Vulkan, it is the application's responsibility to perform adequate
synchronization before a sparse unmap, replace or BO destroy operation.
This adds an option to AMDGPU_VA_OPs to disable redundant implicit sync
that happens on sparse unmap or replace operations.

This has seen a significant improvement in stutter in Forza Horizon 5
and Forza Horizon 4. (As games that had significant issues in sparse
binding related stutter).

Userspace changes for this new version can be found at [1][2], and a kernel
branch containing these patches can be found at [3].

v3 changes:
- Rebased onto current amd-staging-drm-next
- Added option to wait for drm_syncobjs instead of executing immediately

Tatsuyuki Ishi (3):
  drm/amdgpu: Don't implicit sync PRT maps.
  drm/amdgpu: Add optional explicit sync fences for GEM operations.
  drm/amdgpu: Bump amdgpu driver version.
