[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Check incoming alignment for unfenced buffers (on i915gm)

In case the object has changed tiling between calls to execbuf, we need
to check if the existing offset inside the GTT matches the new tiling
constraint. We even need to do this for "unfenced" tiled objects, where
the 3D commands use an implied fence and so the object still needs to
match the physical fence restrictions on alignment (only required for
gen2 and early gen3).

In commit 2889caa92321 ("drm/i915: Eliminate lots of iterations over
the execobjects array"), the idea was to remove the second guessing and
only set the NEEDS_MAP flag when required. However, the entire check
for an unusable offset for fencing was removed and not just the
secondary check. I.e.

	/* avoid costly ping-pong once a batch bo ended up non-mappable */
        if (entry->flags & __EXEC_OBJECT_NEEDS_MAP &&
            !i915_vma_is_map_and_fenceable(vma))
                return !only_mappable_for_reloc(entry->flags);

was entirely removed as the ping-pong between execbuf passes was fixed,
but its primary purpose in forcing unaligned unfenced access to be
rebound was forgotten.
