    drm/i915: Workaround incoherence with fence updates on Valleyview

Jon Bloomfield came up with a plausible explanation and cheap fix
(drm/i915: Fix incoherence with fence updates on Sandybridge+) for the
race condition, so lets run with it.

This is a candidate for stable as the old workaround incurs a
significant cost (calling wbinvd on all CPUs before performing the
register write) for some workloads as noted by Carsten Emde.

/* In order to fully serialize access to the fenced region and

* measures on SNB+. In theory, the write to the fence register
* flushes all memory transactions before, and coupled with the
* mb() placed around the register write we serialise all memory
* operations with respect to the changes in the tiler. Yet, on
* SNB+ we need to take a step further and emit an explicit wbinvd()
* on each processor in order to manually flush all memory
* transactions before updating the fence register.
*
* However, Valleyview complicates matter. There the wbinvd is
* insufficient and unlike SNB/IVB requires the serialising
* register write. (Note that that register write by itself is
* conversely not sufficient for SNB+.) To compromise, we do both.
