3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <ch...@chris-wilson.co.uk>

During modeset we have to disable the pipe to reconfigure its timings
and maybe its size. Userspace may have queued up command buffers that
depend upon the pipe running in a certain configuration and so the
commands may become confused across the modeset. At the moment, we use a
less than satisfactory kick-scanline-waits should the GPU hang during
the modeset. It should be more reliable to wait for the pending
operations to complete first, even though we still have a window for
userspace to submit a broken command buffer during the modeset.
