Explicit synchronization benefits a lot from ordered queues, they fit
better in a pipeline with DRM for example so create a opt-in way for
drivers notify videobuf2 that the queue is unordered.

Drivers don't need implement it if the queue is ordered.

If I understand, this is just a bit, right?

if so, better to declare it as:

	u32				cnt_is_unordered : 1;

no, is_unordered() is a vb2 callback to ask drivers if their current
queue is not ordered and cnt_is_unordered is the counter of how many
times this callback was called. This happens for all vb2 callbacks, see
the other counters above, so I decided to add one for is_unordered() as
well.
