Remember the wait_event pattern is to skip the wait if COND is already
met. So since the first thing the retirement does is the
atomic_dec_and_test(), we can see ref->count == 0 very early, long
before ref->retire() is called. Our selftest is checking that if
i915_active_wait() reports completion, the callback has also run and
that the i915_active can then be destroyed.
