drm_atomic_helper_swap_state could previously never fail, in order to still
continue it would set a limit of 10s on waiting for previous updates to 
complete,
then it moved forward. This can be very bad when ignoring previous updates,
because the hw state and sw state may get out of sync when for example a modeset
is ignored.

By converting the swap_state to interruptible and handling the error in each 
driver,
we fix this issue because if a update takes forever it can be aborted through 
signals.

Changes since first version:
- Split out driver conversions.
- Fix nouveau error handling first.
