Daniel Vetter cc889e0f6c drm/i915: disable flushing_list/gpu_write_list
This is just the minimal patch to disable all this code so that we can
do decent amounts of QA before we rip it all out.

The complicating thing is that we need to flush the gpu caches after
the batchbuffer is emitted. Which is past the point of no return where
execbuffer can't fail any more (otherwise we risk submitting the same
batch multiple times).

Hence we need to add a flag to track whether any caches associated
with that ring are dirty. And emit the flush in add_request if that's
the case.

Note that this has a quite a few behaviour changes:
- Caches get flushed/invalidated unconditionally.
- Invalidation now happens after potential inter-ring sync.

I've bantered around a bit with Chris on irc whether this fixes
anything, and it might or might not. The only thing clear is that with
these changes it's much easier to reason about correctness.

Also rip out a lone get_next_request_seqno in the execbuffer
retire_commands function. I've dug around and I couldn't figure out
why that is still there, with the outstanding lazy request stuff it
shouldn't be necessary.

v2: Chris Wilson complained that I also invalidate the read caches
when flushing after a batchbuffer. Now optimized.

v3: Added some comments to explain the new flushing behaviour.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
