[PATCH] drm/i915/gt: Do not consider preemption during execlists_dequeue for gen8

We're seeing a GPU HANG issue on a CHV platform, which was caused by
bac24f59f454 ("drm/i915/execlists: Enable coarse preemption boundaries for gen8").

Gen8 platform has only timeslice and doesn't support a preemption mechanism
as engines do not have a preemption timer and doesn't send an irq if the
preemption timeout expires. So, add a fix to not consider preemption
during dequeuing for gen8 platforms.

Also move can_preemt() above need_preempt() function to resolve implicit
declaration of function ‘can_preempt' error and make can_preempt()
function param as const to resolve error: passing argument 1 of
‘can_preempt’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from the pointer target type.

v2: Simplify can_preemt() function (Tvrtko Ursulin)

Fixes: bac24f59f454 ("drm/i915/execlists: Enable coarse preemption boundaries for gen8")
Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/i915/kernel/-/issues/11396
