Subject: [PATCH 3.2 105/200] drm/i915: Prevent MI_DISPLAY_FLIP straddling
 two cachelines on IVB

3.2.56-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@...ux.intel.com>

commit f66fab8e1cd6b3127ba4c5c0d11539fbe1de1e36 upstream.

According to BSpec the entire MI_DISPLAY_FLIP packet must be contained
in a single cacheline. Make sure that happens.

v2: Use intel_ring_begin_cacheline_safe()
v3: Use intel_ring_cacheline_align() (Chris)
