Chris Wilson 86b27d8050 drm/i915: Ignore a hung GPU when flushing the framebuffer prior to a switch
If the gpu is hung, then whatever was inside the render cache is lost
and there is little point waiting for it. Or complaining if we see an
EIO or EAGAIN instead. So, if the GPU is indeed in its death throes when
we need to rewrite the registers for a new framebuffer, just ignore the
error and proceed with the update.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
