I was entertaining the same though for quite a while, but I would even 
go a step further and actually always base the wait before signal 
functionality of the drm_syncobj and the eventfd functionality. That 
would save us quite a bit of complexity I think.

As a general note I think the name 
DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_TIMELINE_REGISTER_EVENTFD is just to long, just make 
that DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_EVENTFD. Same for the function names as well.

Additional to that I think we should also always have a graceful 
handling for binary syncobjs. So please try to avoid making this special 
for the timeline case (the timeline case should of course still be 
supported).

Regards,
Christian.
