drm/i915: Avoid stalling on pending flips for legacy cursor updates

Browse source 
The legacy cursor ioctl expects to be asynchronous with respect to other
screen updates, in particular page flips. As X updates the cursor from a
signal context, if the cursor blocks then it will stall both the input
and output chains causing bad stuttering and horrible UX.
