habanalabs: add signal/wait to CS IOCTL operations
Add the following two operations to the CS IOCTL: Signal: The signal operation is basically a command submission, that is created by the driver upon user request. It will be implemented using a dedicated PQE that will increment a specific SOB. There will be a new flag: HL_CS_FLAGS_SIGNAL. When the user set this flag in the CS IOCTL structure, the driver will execute a dedicated code path that will prepare this special PQE and submit it. The user only needs to provide a queue index on which to put the signal. Wait: The wait operation is also a command submission that is created by the driver upon user request. It will be implemented using a dedicated PQE that will contain packets of "ARM a monitor" + FENCE packet. There will be a new flag: HL_CS_FLAGS_WAIT. When the user set this flag in the CS structure, the driver will execute a dedicated code path that will prepare this special PQE and submit it. The user needs to provide the following parameters: 1. queue ID 2. an array of signal_seq numbers and the number of signals to wait on (the length of signal_seq_arr). The IOCTL will return the CS sequence number of the wait it put on the queue ID. Currently, the code supports signal_seq_nr==1. But this API definition will allow us to put a single PQE that waits on multiple signals. To correctly configure the monitor and fence, the driver will need to retrieve the specified signal CS object that contains the relevant SOB and its expected value. In case the signal CS has already been completed, there is no point of adding a wait operation. In this case, the driver will return to the user *without* putting anything on the PQ. The return code should reflect to the user that the signal was completed, as we won't return a CS sequence number for this wait.
