[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/5] drm/i915: Implement CS stall workaround on Broadwell.

According to the latest documentation, any PIPE_CONTROL with the
"Command Streamer Stall" bit set must also have another bit set,
with five different options.  I chose "Stall at Pixel Scoreboard"
since we've used it effectively in the past, but the choice is
fairly arbitrary.
