From: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c951b0af2dddbb1f34be103029eb9030392d5554 upstream. Requests within a timeline are ordered by that timeline, so awaiting for the start of a request within the timeline is a no-op. This used to work by falling out of the mutex_trylock() as the signaler and waiter had the same timeline and not returning an error.
