Afaik PIPE_CONTROL auto-switches the size of the write depending upon the
cmd length. We've already seen an increase from gen5 to gen6 (the flags
dword was added) and got away with it in the kernel for an awful lot of
time. So if you don't have any special plans wrt bdw compatibility I don't
think you need this.
MI_FLUSH_DW for the blitter (and other !render rings) works the same
magic. And judging from Bspec that's still the case for bdw+
