[PATCH 1/3] drm/i915: Always recompute watermarks when distrust_bios_wm is set

On some systems there can be a race condition in which no crtc state is
added to the first atomic commit. This results in all crtc's having a
null DDB allocation, causing a FIFO underrun on any update until the
first modeset.
