Ville Syrjälä d6feb1962d drm/i915: Limit the watermark to at least 8 entries on gen2/3
830 is very unhappy of the watermark value is too low (indicating a very
high watermark in fact, ie. memory fetch will occur with an almost full
FIFO). Limit the watermark value to at least 8 cache lines.

That also matches the burst size we use on most platforms. BSpec seems
to indicate we should limit the watermark to 'burst size + 1'. But on
gen4 we already use a hardcoded 8 as the watermark value (as the spec
says we should), so just use 8 as the limit on gen2/3 as well.

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.
