drm/i915/gt: Check carefully for an idle engine in wait-for-idle
intel_gt_wait_for_idle() tries to wait until all the outstanding requests are retired and the GPU is idle. As a side effect of retiring requests, we may submit more work to flush any pm barriers, and so the wait-for-idle tries to flush the background pm work and catch the new requests. However, if the work completed in the background before we were able to flush, it would queue the extra barrier request without us noticing -- and so we would return from wait-for-idle with one request remaining. (This breaks e.g. record_default_state where we need to wait until that barrier is retired, and it may slow suspend down by causing us to wait on the background retirement worker as opposed to immediately retiring the barrier.) However, since we track if there has been a submission since the engine pm barrier, we can very quickly detect if the idle barrier is still outstanding.
