Hi Thomas, Srini,

Srini is already working quite a while on something similar for amdgpu. We use 
eventfd and a device specific IOCTL instead of the watch_queue proposed here.

Srini please take a look at this, it is basically the equivalent of our event 
notification approach for KFD/KGD unification. Maybe we could learn from that 
and/or have something common for both drivers.

Thanks,
Christian.
