[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] i965/hsw: Implement end of batch workaround

From: Ben Widawsky <benjamin.widawsky at intel.com>

This patch can cause an infinite recursion if the previous patch titled, "i965:
Track finished batch state" isn't present (backporters take notice).

v2: Sent out the wrong patch originally. This patches switches the order of
flushes, doing the generic flush before the CC_STATE, and the required
workaround flush afterwards

v3: Only perform workaround for render ring
Add text to the BATCH_RESERVE comments

v4: Rebase; update citation to mention PRM and Wa name; combine two blocks.

Hey Ben,

I was going to suggest a few minor changes, and then realized it'd save us both
time if I just typed them up.  Here's a v4 of your patch.  If it passes Jenkins,
I'd say let's push it.  Thanks for remembering this!
