Ugh. This loop appears susceptible to loosing wake ups. There are
races between when a wake-up happens, when we clear the sleeping state,
and when we test the stat to see if we should stat awake. So yes
implementing a dma_fence_wait_killable that handles of all that
correctly sounds like an very good idea.
