[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] i915/gem_exec_balancer: Disable pre-parser for rewritten batches

As we rewrite the batches on the fly to implement the non-preemptible
lock, we need to tell Tigerlake to read the batch afresh each time.
Amusingly, the disable is a part of an arb-check, so we have to be
careful not to include the arbitration point inside our unpreemptible
loop.
