We mark ppgtt dirty when vm area grows. As one needs
to allocate atleast one batchbuffer object before running
anything in vm space, this was considered adequate. However in
init, we run batch which doesn't need to allocate anything. This
is the render state initialization batch, part of context init.
Newly created ppgtt is not marked dirty as no allocations for it
are done. This results bb emission skip the pdps writing to hw,
and we start the batch with uninitialized (zero) pdp registers
causing gpu hangs early in the init.

Always mark newly created ppgtts dirty to ensure that pdps are
pushed before first bb.

That's true, although I was under the impression that the render state 
batch was executed in the ggtt.

Does this also apply for gen7? (or should only be in gen8_ppgtt_init).
