[Intel-xe] [PATCH] drm/xe: Use milliseconds instead of jiffies in uapi for user fence

Using jiffies as a timeout from userspace is weird even it theoretically
exists possiblity of acquiring jiffies via getconf. Unfortunately this
method is unreliable and returned value may vary from configured in the
kernel config.

Due to kernel constraints regarding milliseconds type (unsigned int)
conversion to jiffies and uapi timeout defined as u64 return an error
if timeout exceeds unsigned int size.
