[PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: put/get the power well at the FB bind/unbind functions

From: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni at intel.com>

If we run the following command on Haswell when the power well is
disabled:
    echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
then we'll get thousands of consecutive interrupts because something
is trying to touch registers that are on the disabled power well. So
before we unbind the console, we need to enable the power well to make
the VGA interface work correctly. With this, whoever is using it
doesn't trigger interrupts on i915.ko.

Fixes regression introduced by:
    commit bf51d5e2cda5d36d98e4b46ac7fca9461e512c41
    Author: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni at intel.com>
        drm/i915: switch disable_power_well default value to 1

Besides the command above, the "module_reload" test from
intel-gpu-tools can also be used to reproduce the bug fixed by this
patch.
