Subject: [PATCH 4.9 092/109] dma-buf/sw-sync: sync_pt is private and of fixed size

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit 3b52ce44e720c240afc4c4b03140d7b7811b23bd upstream.

Since sync_pt is only allocated from a single location and is no longer
the base class for fences (that is struct dma_fence) it no longer needs
a generic unsized allocator.
