[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 5/8] drm/i915: Add the display switch logic for vgpu in i915 driver

Display switch logic is added to notify the vgt mediator that
current vgpu have a valid surface to show. It does so by writing
the display_ready field in PV INFO page, and then will be handled
in vgt mediator. This is useful to avoid trickiness when the VM's
framebuffer is being accessed in the middle of VM modesetting,
e.g. compositing the framebuffer in the host side.

v2:
	- move the notification code outside the 'else' in load sequence
	- remove the notification code in intel_crtc_set_config()
