[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Performed deferred clflush inside set-cache-level

Currently we are hitting the WARN inside
i915_gem_object_set_cache_level() as we can now have an unbound object
in the GTT write domain (due to 43566dedde54f9 "drm/i915: Broaden
application of set-domain(GTT)"). To avoid the warning, we need to track
when we elided the clflush on a cacheable object and then evict the
cache for the object when we move the object out of a cacheable domain.
