From: "Niu,Bing" <bing.niu at intel.com>

It is found that i915 will not reset gpu under execlist mode when
unload module. that will lead to some issues when unload/load module
with different submission mode. e.g. from execlist mode to ring
buffer mode via loading/unloading i915. Because HW is not in a reset
state and registers are not clean under such condition.
