Ok, let me try to make sense of it all. First off, the need for
obj[IGT_SPIN_SCRATCH].handle grows.

But as the semaphore will wait the spinner to start and then end it.
It is not enough to wait the semaphore batch to sync. That is clear.

But on syncing the scratch: the obj[1].handle is causing write
hazard to obj[0] so if we wait obj[0], then it is implied that
obj[1].handle has finished?
