Chris Wilson 1212bd821d drm/i915/ringbuffer: Move irq seqno barrier to the GPU for gen7
The irq_seqno_barrier is a tradeoff between doing work on every request
(on the GPU) and doing work after every interrupt (on the CPU). We
presume we have many more requests than interrupts! However, the current
w/a for Ivybridge is an implicit delay that currently fails sporadically
and consistently if we move the w/a into the irq handler itself. This
makes the CPU barrier untenable for upcoming interrupt handler changes
and so we need to replace it with a delay on the GPU before we send the
MI_USER_INTERRUPT. As it turns out that delay is 32x MI_STORE_DWORD_IMM,
or about 0.6us per request! Quite nasty, but the lesser of two evils
looking to the future.
