We have a bunch of schedule() calls in i915, for e.g. waiting for multiple
events at the same time (when we want to unblock if any of them fire). And
there's no might_sleep in these cases afaict. Adding the check in
schedule() sounds useful, I'll include your snippet in v2. Plus try a bit
better to explain in the commit message why Michal suggested these.
