    drm/i915: enable semaphores on gen6 if dmar is not active · 59de3295

    Inspired by the recent ppgtt regression report, where switching of
    dmar only for the gpu seems to fix things completely, I've looked
    again at the semaphores+vt-d situation.
    
    Contrary to my earlier testing a few months back my system is now
    stable with dmar disabled for the igd, and not only when disabling
    dmar completely.
    
    So I'm rather hopeful that all our recent fixes for snb have changed
    things for code and it's time to try enabling semaphores again. We've
    also had issues with enabling semaphores which are not vt-d related,
    but I guess these are all fixed by the autoreport-disabling and lazy
    request fix. And there's only one way to find out whether there are
    still other issues ...
    
    When I've tried to apply this patch I've noticed that semaphores on
    gen6 have already silently been enabled in

        drm/i915: use semaphores for the display plane
    
    Fix this up by only checking whether dmar is enabled on the gfx (not
    on the entire system).
