        drm/i915: Restrict GPU boost to the RCS engine
    
    but in reality it undercovered a much older coherency bug. The issue that
    boosting the GPU frequency on the BCS ring was masking was that we could
    wake the CPU up after completion of a BCS batch and inspect memory prior
    to the write cache being fully evicted. In order to serialise the
    breadcrumb interrupt (and so ensure that the CPU's view of memory is
    coherent) we need to perform a post-sync operation in the MI_FLUSH_DW.
    
    v2: Fix all the MI_FLUSH_DW (bsd plus the duplication in execlists).
    
    Also fix the invalidate_domains mask in gen8_emit_flush() for ring !=
    VCS.
