[PATCH v2] drm/xe/bmg: improve cache flushing behaviour

[Matthew Auld]

The BSpec says that EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH must be toggled
on for manual global invalidation to take effect and actually flush
device cache, however this also turns on flushing for things like
pipecontrol, which occurs between submissions for compute/render. This
sounds like massive overkill for our needs, where we already have the
manual flushing on the display side with the global invalidation. Some
observations on BMG:

1. Disabling l2 caching for host writes and stubbing out the driver
   global invalidation but keeping EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH enabled, has
   no impact on wb-transient-vs-display IGT, which makes sense since the
   pipecontrol is now flushing the device cache after the render copy.
   Without EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH the test then fails, which is also
   expected since device cache is now dirty and display engine can't see
   the writes.

2. Disabling EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH, but keeping the driver global
   invalidation also has no impact on wb-transient-vs-display. This
   suggests that the global invalidation still works as expected and is
   flushing the device cache without EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH turned on.

With that drop EN_L3_RW_CCS_CACHE_FLUSH. This helps some workloads since
we no longer flush the device cache between submissions as part of
pipecontrol.

Edit: We now also have clarification from HW side that BSpec was indeed
wrong here.

v2:
