> drm/i915/fence: Use rcu to defer freeing of irq_work

> It is illegal to perform an immediate free of the struct irq_work from

I still see a lot of weirdness from the GLK-DSI machine. Chris, if you want to
close this bug feel free. I just wanted not file this on <a class="bz_bug_link
bz_status_ASSIGNED "
title="ASSIGNED - [BAT] [GLK-DSI only] igt@gem_* - Failed assertion: !"GPU hung" - and its aftermath"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=103514">bug 103514</a>, since this
looked extra weird enough to deserve its own bug.</pre>
