[PATCH v3 1/1] drm/syncobj: add sideband payload

No, I just see your comment "The next vkQueueSubmit()
waiting on a the syncobj will read the sideband payload and wait for a
fence chain element with a seqno superior or equal to the sideband
payload value to be added into the fence chain and use that fence to
trigger the submission on the kernel driver. ".

In that, you mentioned wait for sideband.
So I want to know we how to use that, maybe I miss something in previous 
discussing thread.
