drm/i915: fix memory corruption with GM965 and >4GB RAM

On a Thinkpad x61s, I noticed some memory corruption when
plugging/unplugging the external VGA connection. The symptoms are that
4 bytes at the beginning of a page get overwritten by zeroes.
The address of the corruption varies when rebooting the machine, but
stays constant while it's running (so it's possible to repeatedly write
some data and then corrupt it again by plugging the cable).

Further investigation revealed that the corrupted address is
(dev_priv->status_page_dmah->busaddr & 0xffffffff), ie. the beginning of
the hardware status page of the i965 graphics card, cut to 32 bits.

So it seems that for some memory access, the hardware uses only 32 bit
addressing. If the hardware status page is located >4GB, this
corrupts unrelated memory.
