[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Only report a wakeup if the waiter was truly asleep

[Chris Wilson]

If we attempt to wake up a waiter, who is currently checking the seqno
it will be in the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state and ttwu will report success.
However, it is actually awake and functioning -- so delay reporting the
actual wake up until it sleeps. This fixes some spurious claims of
missed_breadcrumbs when running under heavy load; i.e. sufficient load to
preempt away the newly woken waiter before they complete their checks.
However, it does so at the cost of a rare false negative; where the
waiter changes between the check and ttwu -- the only way to fix that
would be to extend the reporting from ttwu where the check could be done
atomically.

v2: Defend against !CONFIG_SMP
v3: Don't filter out calls to wake_up_process

Testcase: igt/drv_missed_irq # sanity check we do detect missed_breadcrumb()
Testcase: igt/gem_concurrent_blit # for generating false positives
