drm/i915: Prevent machine hang from Broxton's vtd w/a and error capture



Since capturing the error state requires fiddling around with the GGTT
to read arbitrary buffers and is itself run under stop_machine(), it
deadlocks the machine (effectively a hard hang) when run in conjunction
with Broxton's VTd workaround to serialize GGTT access.

v2: Store the ERR_PTR in first_error so that the error can be reported
to the user via sysfs.
v3: Mention the quirk in dmesg (using info as per usual)

Fixes: 0ef34ad6 ("drm/i915: Serialize GTT/Aperture accesses on BXT")
