drm/i915: Remove IMR masking during interrupt handler, and restart it if needed.
The IMR masking was a technique recommended for avoiding getting stuck with no interrupts generated again in MSI mode. It kept new IIR bits from getting set between the IIR read and the IIR write, which would have otherwise prevented an MSI from ever getting generated again. However, this caused a problem for vblank as the IMR mask would keep the pipe event interrupt from getting reflected in IIR, even after the IMR mask was brought back down. Instead, just check the state of IIR after we ack the interrupts we're going to handle, and restart if we didn't get IIR all the way to zero.
