        drm/i915: Apply post-sync write for pipe control invalidates
    
    was that only a request to emit invalidate flush would result in the
    TLB being invalidated (since it requires synchronisation and so incurs a
    performance penalty). However, the stated w/a for hardware contexts is
    that the TLBs must be invalidated prior to a MI_SET_CONTEXT, yet the w/a
    itself did not request the TLBs to be invalidated...
    
    Note this w/a does not prevent the hard system hang I experience when
    using hw contexts (with rc6 enabled) on SNB GT1.
