[PATCH v3] drm/i915/skl: Don't try to update plane watermarks if they haven't changed

[Lyude]

Since this patch has been on hold for a little bit, I did a bit of
thinking of how we could this a little more cleanly. Unfortunately I
couldn't think of a way, however I did think of an alternative
solution:

I'm planning on backporting all of the skl wm fixes already, so I'm
going to use this patch for that since it's very small. As for
mainline, I'm going to do a whole reorganization of the skl wm/ddb
structs in i915 like Matt had suggested before. Things might look a
little more like this (taken from my half-complete reorganization):

struct skl_plane_ddb_allocation {
	struct skl_ddb_entry plane;
	struct skl_ddb_entry y_plane;
};

struct skl_plane_wm_values {
	struct skl_plane_ddb_allocation ddb;
	uint32_t wm[8];
	uint32_t trans_wm;
};

struct skl_pipe_wm_values {
	struct skl_ddb_entry ddb;
	uint32_t linetime;
};

struct skl_hw_wm_values { /* (only used for skl_get_hw_ddb and friends) */
	struct skl_pipe_wm_values pipe[I915_MAX_PIPES];
	struct skl_plane_wm_values plane[I915_MAX_PIPES][I915_MAX_PLANES];
};

As well, I'm also just going to completely remove the skl_results and
skl_hw structs from struct drm_i915_private. This makes sense for a lot
of reasons:
 * This completely gets rid of the need for a global watermark lock (on
   Skylake at least) and will make things a lot easier for atomic
   support in the future
 * Skylake doesn't have any actual global watermark hooks anyway, aside
   from skl_update_wm() which is now only used for writing watermarks
   for inactive pipes during haswell_crtc_enable()
 * This makes passing watermarks around way less of a mess
 * Saves a tiny bit of data, and so far being able to grab
   watermarks/ddbs right from the plane states seems to be a lot easier
   then messing with a large array

As for this fix, I'll probably still need someone to review it so I can
get it into 4.7.y.

Let me know what you think.
