Enable IP block soft reset as a GPU recovery method for GFX6 graphics and compute rings.
This improves current user experience on all GFX6 chips. The current GPU recovery method is a legacy ASIC reset which always clears the contents of VRAM, which means that a buggy (hanging) app can crash the whole graphical session, which is less than ideal. Also on some GPUs the ASIC reset causes the GPU to fall off the PCIe bus so it's not desireable. Using GFX IP block soft reset means that we can now move on from GFX hangs on GFX6 dGPUs without crashing the whole system. Tested with the "hard_reset_cp_wait" test case from the Hang Test Suite created by Natalie Vock and Konstantin Seurer. This Vulkan testcase waits for an event that never occurs, effectively a WAIT_REG_MEM packet that intentionally hangs. IP block soft reset can resolve that hang and allow the rest of the system to move on and keep functioning without needing a full ASIC reset.
