The gather filter is a feature present on Tegra124 and newer where the
hardware prevents GATHERed command buffers from executing commands

This commit enables the gather filter on all supporting hardware.

Is it really possible that gather filter could be not present on HW without
hypervisor? Maybe there is other way to enable it in that case?
The hardware may have the hypervisor but Linux may be running as a
virtual machine without access to the hypervisor, in which case we
cannot access the registers, and it's the responsibility of the other OS
acting as hypervisor to enable the gather filter.
Is possible at all that hypervisor could be missed?
BTW, this is also incoherent with the 'syncpoint protection' patch which doesn't
check for hypervisor presence.
However, I noticed that check and it's wrongly placed ;) See comment to the
'syncpoint protection' patch.
