Allocate a new private stub fence in drm_syncobj_assign_null_handle, instead of using a static stub fence. When userspace creates a fence with DRM_SYNCOBJ_CREATE_SIGNALED or when userspace signals a fence via DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_SIGNAL, the timestamp obtained when the fence is exported and queried with SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO should match when the fence's status was changed from the perspective of userspace, which is during the respective ioctl. When a static stub fence started being used in by these ioctls, this behavior changed. Instead, the timestamp returned by SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO became the first time anything used the static stub fence, which has no meaning to userspace.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
