Daniel Vetter 93b525dccf drm/i915: fixup forcewake spinlock fallout in drpc debugfs function
My forcewake spinlock patches have a functional conflict with Ben
Widawsky's gen6 drpc support for debugfs. Result was a benign warning
about trying to read an non-atomic variabla with atomic_read.

Note that the entire check is racy anyway and purely informational.
Also update it to reflect the forcewake voodoo changes, the kernel can
now also hold onto a forcewake reference for longer times.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
