    drm/i915: Finish any pending operations on the framebuffer before disabling

    Similar to the case where we are changing from one framebuffer to
    another, we need to be sure that there are no pending WAIT_FOR_EVENTs on
    the pipe for the current framebuffer before switching. If we disable the
    pipe, and then try to execute a WAIT_FOR_EVENT it will block
    indefinitely and cause a GPU hang.
