Export a sync_file with flags corresponding to the expected GPU usage + * via DMA_BUF_IOCTL_EXPORT_SYNC_FILE. + * + * 2. Submit rendering work which uses the dma-buf.

Import the rendering-complete sync_file into the dma-buf with flags + * corresponding to the GPU usage via DMA_BUF_IOCTL_IMPORT_SYNC_FILE. + * + * Unlike doing implicit synchronization via a GPU kernel driver's exec ioctl, + * the above is not a single atomic operation.
