Gen8 has already had some differentiation with how it handles rings.
Semaphores bring yet more differences, and now is as good a time as any
to do the split.
Also, since gen8 doesn't actually use semaphores up until this point,
put the proper "NULL" values in for the mbox info.
v2: v1 had a stale commit message
v3: Move everything in the is_semaphore_enabled() check
v4: VCS2 rebase
Remove double assignment of signal in render ring (Ville)
v5: Adding missed VCS2 signal init on gen8+ (Rodrigo)

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.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
