Allow SW to force a semaphore release. Typically SW waits for a semaphore to reach the value right before the semaphore release value before doing a release. For example, assuming a semaphore is to be released by SW by writing a 10 into the semaphore, the code waits for the semaphore to get to 9 before writing 10. The problem with this happens when trying to shutdown the GPU unexpectedly. When aborting a channel after the GPU has terminated the GPU is potantially no longer processing anything. If a SW semaphore release is waiting on the semaphore to reach N-1 before writing N to the semaphore N-1 may never get written by the GPU. This obviously causes a hang in the SW shutdown. The solution is to let SW force a semaphore release in the channel_abort case.
