Rather than wait to see whether more space becomes available in the GuC
submission workqueue, we can just return -EAGAIN and let the caller try
again in a little while. This gets rid of an uninterruptable sleep in
the polling code :)

We'll also add a counter to the GuC client statistics, to see how often
we find the WQ full.

v2:
     Flag the likely() code path (Tvtrko Ursulin).

v4:
     Add/update comments about failure counters (Tvtrko Ursulin).
