I like numbers to support a patch.  Any nice ones to throw in here
as examples of expected rates?

Trivial comments from me.  I don't (yet) understand dmabuf well enough
to know if that part is right or not.  Not sure I will ever find the time
so relying on those who are more familiar with it to tell me if that code
is correct.

Thanks,

Jonathan

No idea :)  However that need resolving before we apply this.

Hmm. Is there an easy way to perhaps avoid a function with multiple
error handling paths like we have here.  Perhaps drag the
extra stuff from the the dmabuf_done() function into this if (ret)
then goto err_fence_put;?  I'm not sure if that would make this even
harder to read however.

Looks like you missed updating the docs.
