Daniel Vetter 99ffa1629d drm/i915: enable forcewake voodoo also for gen6
We still have reports of missed irqs even on Sandybridge with the
HWSTAM workaround in place. Testing by the bug reporter gets rid of
them with the forcewake voodoo and no HWSTAM writes.

Because I've slightly botched the rebasing I've left out the ACTHD
readback which is also required to get IVB working. Seems to still
work on the tester's machine, so I think we should go with the more
minmal approach on SNB. Especially since I've only found weak evidence
for holding forcewake while waiting for an interrupt to arrive, but
none for the ACTHD readback.

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.
