This patch is a preparation for replacing enum i915_cache_level with PAT
index. Caching policy for buffer objects is set through the PAT index in
PTE, the old i915_cache_level is not sufficient to represent all caching
modes supported by the hardware.

Preparing the transition by adding some platform dependent data structures
and helper functions to translate the cache_level to pat_index.

cachelevel_to_pat: a platform dependent array mapping cache_level to
                   pat_index.

max_pat_index: the maximum PAT index recommended in hardware specification
               Needed for validating the PAT index passed in from user
               space.

i915_gem_get_pat_index: function to convert cache_level to PAT index.

obj_to_i915(obj): macro moved to header file for wider usage.

I915_MAX_CACHE_LEVEL: upper bound of i915_cache_level for the
                      convenience of coding.
