[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 7/7] drm/i915/vlv: Use Blitter Engine to clear out contents of Stolen frame buffers

From: Akash Goel <akash.goel at intel.com>

On VLV, to clear out the contents of Frame buffers allocated from
stolen area, Blitter engine is being used, to avoid the waste of
CPU cycles in doing a sw based memset.

v2: Removed macros used to construct the dwords of color fill
command of blittter engine.
Corrected handling of stride parameter for Linear objects (Daniel)
