drm/i915: implement inline clflush for pwrite
In micro-benchmarking of the usual pwrite use-pattern of alternating pwrites with gtt domain reads from the gpu, this yields around 30% improvement of pwrite throughput across all buffers size. The trick is that we can avoid clflush cachelines that we will overwrite completely anyway. Furthermore for partial pwrites it gives a proportional speedup on top of the 30% percent because we only clflush back the part of the buffer we're actually writing. v2: Simplify the clflush-before-write logic, as suggested by Chris Wilson. v3: Finishing touches suggested by Chris Wilson: - add comment to needs_clflush_before and only set this if the bo is uncached. - s/needs_clflush/needs_clflush_after/ in the write paths to clearly differentiate it from needs_clflush_before.
