drm/i915: Insert a command barrier on BLT/BSD cache flushes
commit f0a1fb10 upstream. This looked like an odd regression from commit ec5cc0f9 Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Thu Jun 12 10:28:55 2014 +0100 drm/i915: Restrict GPU boost to the RCS engine but in reality it undercovered a much older coherency bug. The issue that boosting the GPU frequency on the BCS ring was masking was that we could wake the CPU up after completion of a BCS batch and inspect memory prior to the write cache being fully evicted. In order to serialise the breadcrumb interrupt (and so ensure that the CPU's view of memory is coherent) we need to perform a post-sync operation in the MI_FLUSH_DW. v2: Fix all the MI_FLUSH_DW (bsd plus the duplication in execlists). Also fix the invalidate_domains mask in gen8_emit_flush() for ring != VCS.
