[PATCH 15/15] drm/nouveau: Skip fence context seqno check if notifies are enabled

If the fence context has notifies enabled, each of the fences'
FENCE_FLAG_SIGNALED_BIT will be updated from the interrupt. We can rely
on this status for reporting the current fence_is_signaled() and so
avoid an expensive uncached read.

v2: Keep the uncached read after first enabling the notify.
