We stopped reading FORCEWAKE for posting reads in

    drm/i915: Never read FORCEWAKE

and started using something from the same cacheline instead. It turns out
reading ECOBUS as posting read worked fine, while GTFIFODBG did not,
preventing RC6 states after suspend/resume per the bug report referenced
below. It's not entirely clear why, but clearly GTFIFODBG was nowhere near
the same cacheline or address range as FORCEWAKE.

Trying out various registers for posting reads showed that all tested
registers for which NEEDS_FORCE_WAKE() (in i915_drv.c) returns true
work. Conversely, most (but not quite all) registers for which
NEEDS_FORCE_WAKE() returns false do not work. Details in the referenced
bug.

Based on the above, add posting reads on ECOBUS where GTFIFODBG was
previously relied on.

In true cargo cult spirit, add posting reads for FORCEWAKE_VLV writes as
well, but instead of ECOBUS, use FORCEWAKE_ACK_VLV which is in the same
address range as FORCEWAKE_VLV.

v2: Add more details to the commit message. No functional changes.
