[PATCH 09/15] drm/i915: Support inter-engine semaphores on gen6/7

Should we gain per-client timelines, we can then utilise the separate
HWSP in order to use MI_SEMAPHORE_MBOX with the unique GGTT addresses
required for synchronising between clients across different engines.
Teach the emit_semaphore_wait about MI_SEMAPHORE_MBOX for the older
generations.

Note that the engine must still indicate support for the semaphore
synchronisation before the context is allowed to use them.
