I'm starting to page back in how this works.. fence cb's aren't broken
(which is also why dma_fence_wait() was not completely broken),
because in retire_submits() we call
dma_fence_is_signaled(submit->hw_fence).

But the reason that the custom wait function cleans up a tiny bit of
jank is that the wait_queue_head_t gets signaled earlier, before we
start iterating the submits and doing all that retire_submit() stuff
(unpin/unref bo's, etc).  I suppose I could just split things up to
call dma_fence_signal() earlier, and *then* do the retire_submits()
stuff.
