[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/3] drm/i915: Work around gen7 BLT ring synchronization issues.

[Eric Anholt]

Previous to this commit, testing easily reproduced a failure where the
seqno would apparently arrive after the IRQ associated with it, with test programs as simple as:

for (;;) {
    glCopyPixels(0, 0, 1, 1);
    glFinish();
}

Various workarounds we've seen for previous generations didn't work to
fix this issue, so until new information comes in, replace the IRQ
waits on the BLT ring with polling.
