drm/i915: Limit the watermark to at least 8 entries on gen2/3

830 is very unhappy of the watermark value is too low (indicating a very
high watermark in fact, ie. memory fetch will occur with an almost full
FIFO). Limit the watermark value to at least 8 cache lines.

That also matches the burst size we use on most platforms. BSpec seems
to indicate we should limit the watermark to 'burst size + 1'. But on
gen4 we already use a hardcoded 8 as the watermark value (as the spec
says we should), so just use 8 as the limit on gen2/3 as well.
