Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: By default, enable RC6 on IVB and SNB when reasonable

RC6 should always work on IVB, and should work on SNB whenever IO
remapping is disabled. Make the default value for the parameter turn
it on in these cases. Setting the value to either 0 or 1 will force
the specified behavior.
