[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 3/4] drm/i915: PSR: Let's rely more on frontbuffer tracking.

Many reasons here:

- Hardware tracking also has hidden corner cases
- Frontbuffer tracking is mature and reliable now
- Our sw exit by unseting bit 31 is really fast and reliable.

Also frontbuffer tracking flush means invalidate and flush.

So, let's rely more and do the proper meaning of flush for
all cases without any workaround.
