[PATCH 2/2] libcamera: dma_buf_allocator: Retry ::ioctl on EINTR

V4L userspace API documentation clearly mentions the handling of
EINTR on ioctl(). Align with the xioctl() reference provided in [1].

Retry the ::ioctl() if failed with errno == EINTR. Use a do..while{}
to check the return value of ::ioctl() and errno value. If the return
value is found to be -1, and errno is set with EINTR, the ioctl() call
should be retried.
