As the i915_active.retire() may be running on another CPU as we detect
that the i915_active is idle, we may not wait for the retirement itself.
Wait for the remote callback by waiting for the retirement worker.

Hm, but wake_up_war is in the worker so how does wait_var_event wake the
waiter up before it has been retired?

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.

True!
