[PATCH 5.10 024/142] drm/i915: Always flush the active worker before returning from the wait

commit f6e98a1809faa02f40e0d089d6cfc1aa372a34c0 upstream.

The first thing the active retirement worker does is decrement the
i915_active count.

The first thing we do during i915_active_wait is try to increment the
i915_active count, but only if already active [non-zero].

The wait may see that the retirement is already started and so marked the
i915_active as idle, and skip waiting for the retirement handler.
However, the caller of i915_active_wait may immediately free the
i915_active upon returning (e.g. i915_vma_destroy) so we must not return
before the concurrent access from the worker is completed. We must
always flush the worker.
