[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/gem: Allow users to disable waitboost

Provide a bit to disable waitboost while waiting on a gem object.
Waitboost results in increased power consumption by requesting RP0
while waiting for the request to complete. Add a bit in the gem_wait()
IOCTL where this can be disabled.

This is related to the libva API change here -
