[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/3] drm/i915: Fix negative remaining time after retire requests

Commit b97060a99b01 ("drm/i915/guc: Update intel_gt_wait_for_idle to work
with GuC") extended the API of intel_gt_retire_requests_timeout() with an
extra argument 'remaining_timeout', intended for passing back unconsumed
portion of requested timeout when 0 (success) is returned.  However, when
request retirement happens to succeed despite an error returned by
dma_fence_wait_timeout(), the error code (a negative value) is passed back
instead of remaining time.  If a user then passes that negative value
forward as requested timeout to another wait, an explicit WARN or BUG can
be triggered.

Instead of copying the value of timeout variable to *remaining_timeout
before return, update the *remaining_timeout after each DMA fence wait.
Set it to 0 on -ETIME, -EINTR or -ERESTARTSYS, and assume no time has been
consumed on other errors returned from the wait.
