[PATCH v2 0/4] amdgpu: Allow explicitly synchronized submissions.

This adds a context option to use DMA_RESV_USAGE_BOOKKEEP for userspace
submissions. This is a respin of [1] but rebased on top of the newly
introduced drm_exec helpers.

Disabling implicit sync is something we've wanted in RADV for a while
for resolving some corner cases. A more immediate thing that would be
solved here is avoiding a bunch of implicit sync on GPU map/unmap
operations as well, which helps with stutter around sparse maps/unmaps.

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). I've been able to pass a full Vulkan CTS run
on Navi 10 with this.

(Note that the drm_exec patchset has introduced new CTS failures with
duplicate BOs, but we will be tracking that separately.)

Userspace code for this is available at [2] and a branch for the kernel
code is available at [3].
