Rather than using wait_for_atomic() when chacking for a response from
the GuC, we can get the effect of a hybrid spin/sleep wait by breaking
it into two stages. First, spin-wait for up to 10us to minimise latency
for "quick" commands; then, if that times out, sleep-wait for up 10ms
(the maximum allowed for a "slow" command).

Being able to do this depends on the recent patch
18f4b84 drm/i915: Use atomic waits for short non-atomic ones
and is similar to the hybrid approach in
1758b90 drm/i915: Use a hybrid scheme for fast register waits
(although we can't use that as-is, because that interface doesn't quite
match what we need here).
