Since the same rc6+iommu combination is known to not work on snb, too,
I'll just disable rc6 if the iommu is on. Since we've never figured out
what's broken with rc6 on ilk (and all the old reporters disappeared)
thanks a lot for hitting this ;-)

Little afaik. Since the gpu is on a separate die in the package there's
much less to switch off - all the inter-die coordination happens manually
on ilk and hence all that stuff needs to be kept on.

Thanks, Daniel
