[PATCH 05/31] drm/i915: Enable render context support for gen4 (Broadwater to Cantiga)

Broadwater and the rest of gen4  do support being able to saving and
reloading context specific registers between contexts, providing isolation
of the basic GPU state (as programmable by userspace). This allows
userspace to assume that the GPU retains their state from one batch to the
next, minimising the amount of state it needs to reload and manually save
across batches.
