Hrm... After running the testset many more times, I discovered that
both the "before" results and "after" results occur with and without my
branch. dEQP's multi-threaded EGLSync tests are very intermittent.

So, these patches don't fix the test as claimed.

But... you should review them anway! Because they're nice cleanups that
I want to use for my upcoming EGL_ANDROID_native_fence_sync patches.
