Destaging the sync stuff is part of the merge criteria for this feature.
So yeah, all the #ifdefery has to go and be replace by a select FENCE or
whatever in the i915 Kconfig.

Wait forever, but interruptibly. Have an igt to exercise the deadlock case
and make sure gpu reset can recover.

You don't get to do this ;-) Fix it by only installing the fd if
everything has succeeded.
