Right. I thought about that and it should be easy to add. The reason to
suggest busy waiting first is, that interrupt processing is supposed to
be fast. The IRQ handler itself doesn't sleep. So I'd expect the wait
time to be short enough that sleeping and scheduling is not worth it.

Not sure what's your idea here, using ih->lock. Is it to completely
drain all IRQs until the IH ring is completely empty? That can
live-lock, if the GPU produces IRQs faster than the kernel can process
them. Therefore I was looking at rptr and wptr to drain only IRQs that
were already in the queue when the drain call was made. That also
ensures that the wait time is bounded and should be short (unless the
ring size is huge).
