Yes, and the callers of this function call wake_up_all or wake_up_all_locked themselves, based on the return value..

For cross-device synchronization it would be nice to have working irqs, it allows signalling fences faster,
and it allows for callbacks on completion to be called. For internal usage it's no more required than it was before.
