Currently we install a callback for performing poll on a dma-buf,
irrespective of the timeout. This involves taking a spinlock, as well as
unnecessary work, and greatly reduces scaling of poll(.timeout=0) across
multiple threads.

We can query whether the poll will block prior to installing the
callback to make the busy-query fast.

Single thread: 60% faster
8 threads on 4 (+4 HT) cores: 600% faster

Still not quite the perfect scaling we get with a native busy ioctl, but
poll(dmabuf) is faster due to the quicker lookup of the object and
avoiding drm_ioctl().
