[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Disable semaphore inter-engine sync without timeslicing

Since the remove of the no-semaphore boosting, we rely on timeslicing to
reorder past inter-dependency hogs across the engines. However, if we
require preemption to support timeslicing, and not all machine support
preemption.

Testcase: igt/gem_exec_schedule/semaphore-codependency # bdw/bsw
Fixes: 18e4af04d218 ("drm/i915: Drop no-semaphore boosting")
