[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 3/3] misc/habalabs: don't set default fence_ops->wait

[Oded Gabbay]

And just FYI, the driver was written internally at 2016-17, where the
dma-buf module didn't check the .wait ops before calling it and that's
why the initialization of the default wait was there in the first
place.
I should have removed it when I upstreamed it but it missed my review.
Thanks,
Oded
