[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 023/190] drm/i915: Only apply one barrier after a breadcrumb interrupt is posted

If we flag the seqno as potentially stale upon receiving an interrupt,
we can use that information to reduce the frequency that we apply the
heavyweight coherent seqno read (i.e. if we wake up a chain of waiters).
