Konsta Hölttä 39d1af0f65 gpu: nvgpu: use user fences in cde buffer state
The stored fence in struct gk20a_buffer_state is a post fence of a
previous cde preparation job, if any. This stored fence is passed to
userspace via NVGPU_GPU_IOCTL_PREPARE_COMPRESSIBLE_READ in case a
preparation job was necessary to fulfill the request. As nothing else is
needed from the fence, make it just a struct nvgpu_user_fence.

Add nvgpu_user_fence_clone() for copying this user fence because it's
stored internally and returned to userspace. The refcounted os fence
needs special care. Now that the API is not so trivial anymore, add some
documentation.
