[PATCH 2/2] dma-buf: clarify dma_fence_add_callback documentation

["Christian König" <ckoenig.leichtzumerken@gmail.com>]

That the caller doesn't need to keep a reference is rather
risky and not defensive at all.

Especially dma_buf_poll got that horrible wrong, so better
remove that sentence and also clarify that the callback
might be called in atomic or interrupt context.
