ignore my last commit.

virify FBC function with kernel3.17.0_drm-intel-nightly_ead7d7_20141013. and we
found that:
For HSW=>
    Save power when running idle/browser/video workload after enable FBC. 
    Not save power when running game workload after enable FBC. 
For IVB=>
    Cannot enable FBC with IVB.
    When set i915.enable_fbc=1 or i915.enable_fbc=0, after reboot and start X, 
    check the FBS status that it's always disable. log:
        [root at x-ivb16 opt]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_fbc_status
        FBC disabled: multiple pipes are enabled
    It's new design or issue?
