[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Improve fallback ring waiting

[Chris Wilson]

A few improvements to the fallback method for waiting upon ring space:

1. Fix the start/end wait tracepoints to always be paired.
2. Increase responsiveness of checking
3. Mark the process as waiting upon io
4. Check for signal interruptions
