Currently we install a callback for performing poll on a dma-buf, irrespective of the timeout. This involves taking a spinlock, as well as unnecessary work, and greatly reduces scaling of poll(.timeout=0) across multiple threads.
We can query whether the poll will block prior to installing the callback to make the busy-query fast. Single thread: 60% faster 8 threads on 4 (+4 HT) cores: 600% faster Still not quite the perfect scaling we get with a native busy ioctl, but poll(dmabuf) is faster due to the quicker lookup of the object and avoiding drm_ioctl().
