[Mesa-stable] [PATCH] i965: Create a hardware context before initializing state module.

brw_init_state() calls brw_upload_initial_gpu_state().  If hardware
contexts are enabled (brw->hw_ctx != NULL), this will upload some
initial invariant state for the GPU.  Without hardware contexts, we
rely on this state being uploaded via atoms that subscribe to the
BRW_NEW_CONTEXT bit.

Commit 46d3c2bf4ddd227193b98861f1e632498fe547d8 accidentally moved
the call to brw_init_state() before creating a hardware context.
This meant brw_upload_initial_gpu_state would always early return.
Except on Gen6+, we stopped uploading the initial GPU state via
state atoms, so it never happened.

Fixes a regression since 46d3c2bf4ddd227193b98861f1e632498fe547d8.

The diff looks weird - I actually moved the hardware context initialization
block up a few lines.  Diff instead decided that I moved these three lines
down below it.  Which is equivalent, but...odd.
