Not sure what is meant by leak here, but the legacy shmem must also
wait/block when unbinding each VMA, before calling truncate. It's the
same story for the ttm backend, except slightly more complicated in
that there might be no currently bound VMA, and yet the GPU could
still be accessing the pages due to async unbinds, kernel moves etc,
which the wait here (and in i915_ttm_shrink) is meant to protect
against. If the wait times out it should just fail gracefully. I guess
we could just use MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT here? Not sure if it really
matters though.
