    drm/i915: ILK + VT-d workaround
    
    Idle the GPU before doing any unmaps. We know if VT-d is in use through
    an exported variable from iommu code.
    
    This should avoid a known HW issue.

This does introduce a synchronous flush of the iommu tlb everytime a
buffer is released which can cause stalls of ~1s every few seconds...
But it does prevent the eventual machine hang. However, I would advise
you to continue to use intel_iommu=igfx_off unless you truly do require
virtualised graphics.
