Alex Waterman f7d219dd1c gpu: nvgpu: Fix semaphore race condition ...

A race condition existed in gk20a_channel_semaphore_wait_fd().
In some instances the semaphore underlying the sync_fence being
waited on would have already signaled. This would cause the
subsequent sync_fence_wait_async() call to return 1 and do
nothing. Normally, the sync_fence_wait_async() call would
release the newly created semaphore but in the above case that
would not happen and hang any channel waiting on that semaphore.

To fix this problem if sync_fence_wait_async() returns 1
immediately release the newly created semaphore.
