Now that the GGTT PTE updates go straight to GSMBASE (bypassing
GTTMMADR) there should be no more risk of system hangs? So the
"binder" (ie. update the PTEs via MI_UPDATE_GTT) is no longer
necessary, disable it.

TODO: MI_UPDATE_GTT might be interesting as an optimization
though, so perhaps someone should look into always using it
(assuming the GPU is alive and well)?

I guess this is RFC :)
Maybe revert "drm/i915: Enable GGTT updates with binder in MTL" ???
CC more competent developer.
Nirmoy, any thoughts?
