Reapply "drm/qxl: simplify qxl_fence_wait"

commit 3628e038 upstream.

This reverts commit 07ed11af

.

Stephen Rostedt reports:
 "I went to run my tests on my VMs and the tests hung on boot up.
  Unfortunately, the most I ever got out was:

  [   93.607888] Testing event system initcall: OK
  [   93.667730] Running tests on all trace events:
  [   93.669757] Testing all events: OK
  [   95.631064] ------------[ cut here ]------------
  Timed out after 60 seconds"

and further debugging points to a possible circular locking dependency
between the console_owner locking and the worker pool locking.

Reverting the commit allows Steve's VM to boot to completion again.

[ This may obviously result in the "[TTM] Buffer eviction failed"
  messages again, which was the reason for that original revert. But at
  this point this seems preferable to a non-booting system... ]
