Workaround Sandy Bridge GPU stalls by allowing the blitter command streamer
to write interrupt state to the Hardware Status Page when a MI_USER_INTERRUPT
command is decoded.

v1->v2: Moved to prior interrupt handler installation and RMW flags as per
feedback.

Eric, if you're happy, please sign-off and send to Dave for inclusion in -rc4
if possible. Further changes may be needed for -stable.

We shouldn't be RMWing.  We're the driver, we're supposed to know what
we want.  I'm backing that bit out, will do another round of testing,
and send it off.

I still prefer directly setting the mask due to my earlier reasons.
Unmasking in the IRQ preinstall tests good here, so I'll send a v3
patch in the morning.

Thanks,
