drm/i915: Don't count semaphore waits towards a stuck ring
If we detect a ring is in a valid wait for another, just let it be. Eventually it will either begin to progress again, or the entire system will come grinding to a halt and then hangcheck will fire as soon as the deadlock is detected. This error was foretold by Ben in commit 05407ff8 Author: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Date: Thu May 30 09:04:29 2013 +0300 drm/i915: detect hang using per ring hangcheck_score "If ring B is waiting on ring A via semaphore, and ring A is making progress, albeit slowly - the hangcheck will fire. The check will determine that A is moving, however ring B will appear hung because the ACTHD doesn't move. I honestly can't say if that's actually a realistic problem to hit it probably implies the timeout value is too low." v2: Make sure we don't even incur the KICK cost whilst waiting.
