blocking ops in drm_sched_cleanup_jobs()

Hi Steven,

thought about that issue a bit more and I think I came up with a solution.

What you could do is to split up drm_sched_cleanup_jobs() into two 
functions.

One that checks if jobs to be cleaned up are present and one which does 
the actual cleanup.

This way we could call drm_sched_cleanup_jobs() outside of the 
wait_event_interruptible().

Regards,
Christian.
