Completions are a simple synchronization mechanism, suitable for 1:M
barriers where many waiters maybe waiting for a single event. However,
some event driven mechanisms require a graph of events where one event
may depend upon several earlier events. The kfence extends the struct
completion to be able to asynchronously wait upon several event sources,
including completions and other fences forming the basis on which an
acyclic dependency graph can be built. Most often this is used to create
a set of interdependent tasks that can be run concurrently but yet
serialised where necessary. For example, the kernel init sequence has
many tasks that could be run in parallel so long as their dependencies
on previous tasks have been completed. Similarly we have the problem of
assigning interdependent tasks to multiple hardware execution engines,
be they used for rendering or for display. kfences provides a building
block which can be used for determining an order in which tasks can
execute.

+/**
+ * DOC: kfence overview
+ *
+ * kfences provide synchronisation barriers between multiple tasks. They are
+ * very similar to completions, or the OpenGL fence synchronisation object.
+ * Where kfences differ from completions is their ability to track multiple
+ * event sources rather than being a singular "completion event". Similar to
+ * completions multiple processes can wait upon a kfence. However, unlike
+ * completions, a kfence can wait upon other kfences allowing for a graph
+ * of interdependent events.
+ *
+ * Each kfence is a one-shot flag, signaling that work has progressed past
+ * a certain point (as measured by completion of all events the kfence is
+ * listening for) and the waiters upon that kfence may proceed.
+ *
+ * kfences provide both signaling and waiting routines:
+ *
+ * - kfence_await(): indicates that the kfence is asynchronously waiting for
+ *   another event.
+ *
+ * - kfence_complete(): undoes the earlier await and marks the fence as done
+ *   if all of its pending events have been completed.
+ *
+ * - kfence_done(): reports whether or not the kfence has been passed.
+ *
+ * - kfence_wait(): allows the caller to sleep (uninterruptibly) until the
+ *   fence is passed.
+ *
+ * This interface is very similar to completions, with the exception of
+ * allowing the fence to await multiple events. kfences can wait upon other
+ * fences or other hardware events, building an ordered dependency graph:
+ *
+ * - kfence_await_kfence(): the kfence asynchronously waits upon completion
+ *   of another kfence
+ *
+ * - kfence_await_completion(): the kfence asynchronously waits upon a
+ *   completion
+ *
+ * A kfence is initialised using kfence_init(), and starts off awaiting an
+ * event. Once you have finished setting up the fence, including adding
+ * all of its asynchronous waits, call kfence_complete().
+ *
+ * Unlike completions, kfences are expected to live inside more complex graphs
+ * and form the basis for parallel execution of interdependent tasks and so are
+ * reference counted. Use kfence_get() and kfence_put() to acquire or release
+ * a reference to the kfence respectively.
+ *
+ * The kfence can be embedded inside a larger structure and be used as part
+ * of its event driven mechanism. As such kfence_init() can be passed a
+ * callback function that will be called first when the kfence is completed,
+ * and again when the kfence is to be freed. If no callback is provided, the
+ * kfence will be freed using kfree() when its reference count hits zero -
+ * if it is embedded inside another structure and no callback is provided,
+ * it must be the first member of its parent struct.
+ *
+ * The fence-completed notification is called before any listeners upon the
+ * fence are signaled, or any waiters woken. You can defer their wake up by
+ * returning NOTIFY_OK from the fence-completed notification and calling
+ * kfence_wake_up_all() later when ready.
