Afaik we only reset GT (i.e. media/blit) and not display on gen6+, at
least all the display stuff survives. This has been the case since roughly
g4x+, and we actually have a bunch of testcases now to verify that.
Specifically the crc vs reset tests will start to fail if anything in the
display block goes south.
