[Intel-gfx] [CI-ping 14/15] drm/i915: Reorganise legacy context switch to cope with late failure

After mi_set_context() succeeds, we need to update the state of the
engine's last_context. This ensures that we hold a pin on the context
whilst the hardware may write to it. However, since we didn't complete
the post-switch setup of the context, we need to force the subsequent
use of the same context to complete the setup (which means updating
should_skip_switch()).
