Some drivers have hardware capability to get the precise HW timestamp
of certain events based on which the fences are triggered. The delta
between the event HW timestamp & current HW reference timestamp can
be used to calculate the timestamp in kernel's CLOCK_MONOTONIC time
domain. This allows it to set accurate timestamp factoring out any
software and IRQ latencies. Add a timestamp variant of fence signal
function, dma_fence_signal_timestamp to allow drivers to update the
precise timestamp for fences.
Changes in v2:
- Add a new fence signal variant instead of modifying fence struct
Changes in v3:
- Add timestamp domain information to commit-text and
dma_fence_signal_timestamp documentation
