[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 4/4 v2] drm/i915: Never read FORCEWAKE

The same designer from the previous patch has told us to never read
FORCEWAKE. We only do this for the POSTING_READ(), so simply change that
to something within the same cacheline (for no reason in particular
other than it sounds nice). In the _mt case we can leverage
the gtfifodbg check for the POSTING_READ.

This partially reverts
