[Intel-gfx] [RFC 8/8] drm/i915: Refine the caching check in i915_gem_object_can_bypass_llc

[Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com>]

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com>

Now that i915 understands the caching modes behind PAT indices, we can
refine the check in i915_gem_object_can_bypass_llc() to stop assuming any
user PAT can bypass the shared cache (if there is any).

Instead we can use the absence of I915_BO_CACHE_COHERENT_FOR_WRITE as the
criteria, which is set for all caching modes where writes from the CPU
side (in this case buffer clears before handing buffers over to userspace)
are fully coherent with respect to reads from the GPU.
