This series adds Rust dma_fence abstractions for GPU drivers, built on two prerequisite patches (`ForeignOwnable for ARef<T>` and `RcuBox`). The overall design is solid: the split between `DriverFence` (producer) and `Fence` (consumer), the pre-allocation pattern (`DriverFenceAllocation`), signal-on-drop semantics, and the `DriverFenceAllowedData` sealed trait for RCU safety are all well-considered.

However, there is **one definite bug** (positive errno passed to `dma_fence_set_error` in the drop path) and **one potential soundness concern** (a TOCTOU race window where `get_driver_name`/`get_timeline_name` callbacks can access a dropped `Arc<FenceCtx>` after the fence is signaled but before the callback returns). Several minor issues also deserve attention.

Patches 1, 2, and 4 are clean and ready or nearly so. Patch 3 (the main dma_fence abstraction) needs the bug fix and design discussion on the FenceCtx lifetime.
