drm/i915: Flush ggtt writes through the old fenced vma before changing fences
This is a precautionary measure as I have no evidence to suggest we've hit a bug here (I was hoping this might explain gdg's odd behaviour, but alas), but given that we have a function to flush the ggtt writes it seems prudent to use it prior to changing the fence register. Due to the intrinsic nature of the GTT often operating as an independent mmio path, we should not just rely on the write to the fence acting as a full flush for GTT writes.
