[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Perform an invalidate prior to executing golden renderstate

[Chris Wilson]

As we may have just bound the renderstate into the GGTT for execution, we
need to ensure that the GTT TLB are also flushed.

On snb-gt2, this would cause a random GPU hang at the start of a new
context (e.g. boot) and on snb-gt1, it was causing the renderstate batch
to take ~10s. It was the GPU hang that revealed the truth, as the CS
gleefully executed beyond the end of the golden renderstate batch, a good
indicator for a GTT TLB miss.
