We might as well dump the drm_file pointer, that's about as useful
a cookie as the pid. Noticed while typing docs for drm_file and friends.
Since the only consumer of this is the tracepoints I think we can safely
change this - those tracepoints should not be uapi relevant at all. It
all goes back to

drm: add per-event vblank event trace points
which doesn't give a special justification for using pid over a pointer.
Also note that the nouveau code setting it is entirely pointless:
Since this isn't a vblank event, it will never hit the vblank
tracepoints.

Merge tag 'v4.10-rc8' into drm-next
Linux 4.10-rc8
Backmerge Linus rc8 to fix some conflicts, but also
to avoid pulling it in via a fixes pull from someone.
Now a drm_pending_event can either send a real drm_event or signal a
fence, or both. It allow us to signal via fences when the buffer is
displayed on the screen. Which in turn means that the previous buffer
is not in use anymore and can be freed or sent back to another driver
for processing.
v2: Comments from Daniel Vetter
- call fence_signal in drm_send_event_locked()
- remove unneeded !e->event check
v3: Remove drm_pending_event->destroy to fix a leak when e->file_priv
is not set.
