[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3] drm/i915: Flush WC GGTT only on required platforms

gen8_ggtt_invalidate() is only needed for limited set of platforms
where GGTT is mapped as WC. This was added as way to fix WC based GGTT in
commit 0f9b91c754b7 ("drm/i915: flush system agent TLBs on SNB") and
there are no reference in HW docs that forces us to use this on non-WC
backed GGTT.

This can also cause unwanted side-effects on XE_HP platforms where
GFX_FLSH_CNTL_GEN6 is not valid anymore.

v2: Add a func to detect wc ggtt detection (Ville)
v3: Improve commit log and add reference commit (Daniel)
