[RFC] drm/i915: _wait_for might be called when irq is off

[deepak.s@linux.intel.com]

From: Deepak S <deepak.s@linux.intel.com>

Sometimes, i915 might call _wait_for when irq is disabled.
If the cpu is the main cpu to process jiffies, jiffies
wouldn't be increased as this cpu disables irq. Then,
time_after(jiffies, timeout__) becomes meaningless. If
gunit doesn't work now, kernel wouldn't exit as the timeout
doesn't work.

The patch fixes it by using sched_clock instead of jiffies.
