drm/i915: Cache GT fifo count for SandyBridge

The read back of the available FIFO entries is vital for system
stability, but extremely costly. However, we only need a guide so as to
avoid eating into the reserved entries and since we are the only
consumer we can cache the read of the count from the last write.
