[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Mark the ringbuffers as being in the GTT domain

By correctly describing the rinbuffers as being in the GTT domain, it
appears that we are more careful with the management of the CPU cache
upon resume and so prevent some coherency issue when submitting commands
to the GPU later. A secondary effect is that the debug logs are then
consistent with the actual usage (i.e. they no longer describe the
ringbuffers as being in the CPU write domain when we are accessing them
through an wc iomapping.)
