This has been incorrect since the original commit from Oscar Mateo here:
commit 4da46e1e5bb7e7396fad172cdaffbe496562f3d8
Author: Oscar Mateo <oscar.mateo@intel.com>
Date:   Thu Jul 24 17:04:27 2014 +0100

    drm/i915/bdw: GEN-specific logical ring emit request

The command's offset field is only 10 bits, and this is correct in all the other
add_request commands. It's highly likely this this patch makes no functional
difference because the hardware will hopefully ignore 31:12 anyway. Technically
the existing code is wrong because the docs say the upper bits are MBZ.
Ultimately, the patch just clears up the confusion.

NOTE: This patch was compile tested only.
NOTE2: The modern docs call it MI_STORE_DATA_INDEX not MI_STORE_DWORD_INDEX

It doesn't use MI_STORE_DATA_INDEX, but a write to a specific memory
address (MI_STORE_DWORD_IMM) as it is not storing in the per-context HWS
but a global (per-engine) page.

You're right. I just noticed the cmd = MI_STORE_DWORD_IMM_GEN4. Sorry about
that.
