We already have ret in the function scope.

Not sure I follow this change, wait rendering would only be issued if
DOMAIN_CPU was in place, this function was about moving to gtt_domain
so should really be NOP if in GTT domain already, no? Maybe calling
site should do an explicit wait_rendering if needed.

Ditto.

Maybe add a comment/TODO/FIXME: about the potential WARN.
