On VT-d systems, the driver must ensure that the GT is idle
before DMA object pages are unmapped.

Currently, the driver simply sleeps for 100-250 microseconds,
which does not guarantee that all requests have completed and no
further ones are being submitted. Replace the sleep with
intel_gt_wait_for_idle() to explicitly wait until the GT has
become idle.

An error is printed if waiting for the GT to become idle fails.
