drm/amdgpu: drop retry loop in amdgpu_hmm_range_get_pages

commit 342981fff32802a819d6fc7cf3c9fedf9f3d9d60 upstream.

Since commit c08972f55594 ("drm/amdgpu: fix amdgpu_hmm_range_get_pages")
moved mmu_interval_read_begin() out of the per-chunk loop, the
captured notifier_seq is no longer refreshed across retries. As a
result, the existing -EBUSY retry path can never make progress:

  hmm_range_fault() returns -EBUSY only when
  mmu_interval_check_retry(notifier, notifier_seq) reports that the
  sequence is stale. Once the sequence has advanced, the stored seq
  will never match again, so every subsequent call within the same
  invocation returns -EBUSY immediately.

The "goto retry" therefore degenerates into a busy spin that simply
burns CPU for the full HMM_RANGE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT (~1s) window before
finally bailing out with -EAGAIN. This is pure latency with no chance
of recovery, and it actively hurts the KFD userptr stack: the caller
ends up blocked for a second while holding mmap_lock, only to return
-EAGAIN to the restore worker (or to userspace) which would have
re-driven the operation immediately anyway.

Drop the retry/timeout entirely and let -EBUSY propagate straight to
out_free_pfns, where it is already translated to -EAGAIN. Recovery is
handled at a higher level: the KFD restore_userptr_worker reschedules
itself, and the userptr ioctl path returns -EAGAIN to userspace.

No functional regression: the previous behaviour on -EBUSY was already
to fail with -EAGAIN after a 1s stall; we just skip the stall.
