drm/i915/gt: Fix -EDEADLK handling regression
The conversion to ww mutexes failed to address the fence code which already returns -EDEADLK when we run out of fences. Ww mutexes on the other hand treat -EDEADLK as an internal errno value indicating a need to restart the operation due to a deadlock. So now when the fence code returns -EDEADLK the higher level code erroneously restarts everything instead of returning the error to userspace as is expected. To remedy this let's switch the fence code to use a different errno value for this. -ENOBUFS seems like a semi-reasonable unique choice. Apart from igt the only user of this I could find is sna, and even there all we do is dump the current fence registers from debugfs into the X server log. So no user visible functionality is affected. If we really cared about preserving this we could of course convert back to -EDEADLK higher up, but doesn't seem like that's worth the hassle here. Not quite sure which commit specifically broke this, but I'll just attribute it to the general gem ww mutex work.
