The *_interruptible_* variant is needed so that the display manager process can be killed while it's waiting here, which could take up to 10 seconds (per the timeout).

What's the problem with -ERESTARTSYS? Either the ioctl should be restarted automatically, or if it bounces back to user space, that needs to be able to retry the ioctl while it returns -1 and errno == EINTR. drmIoctl handles this transparently.
