For anything involving the GPU, userspace already needs to sync access
(ie. GPUs are asynchronous).. this is done using drm_gem_object::resv
(which comes from dma_buf::resv)..
Possibly we should require that
dma_buf_begin_cpu_access()/dma_buf_end_cpu_access().. but in practice
if the gl/vk driver needs CPU access it is to read the results of it's
own GPU rendering. Disallow that and all of deqp/piglit/etc will
break on systems where "window" surfaces are dma-buf imports (like
android), which would be a rather unpopular outcome ;-)
