Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915/gt: Flush xcs before tgl breadcrumbs

In a simple test case that writes to scratch and then busy-waits for the
batch to be signaled, we observe that the signal is before the write is
posted. That is bad news.

Splitting the flush + write_dword into two separate flush_dw prevents
the issue from being reproduced, we can presume the post-sync op is not
so post-sync.
