[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 09/11] dma-buf: Restart reservation_object_test_signaled_rcu() after writes

In order to be completely generic, we have to double check the read
seqlock after acquiring a reference to the fence. If the driver is
allocating fences from a SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, or similar freelist, then
within an RCU grace period a fence may be freed and reallocated. The RCU
read side critical section does not prevent this reallocation, instead
we have to inspect the reservation's seqlock to double check if the
fences have been reassigned as we were acquiring our reference.
