[PATCH] drm/i915: check to see if SIMD registers are available before using SIMD

["Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sometimes it's not okay to use SIMD registers, the conditions for which
have changed subtly from kernel release to kernel release. Usually the
pattern is to check for may_use_simd() and then fallback to using
something slower in the unlikely case SIMD registers aren't available.
So, this patch fixes up i915's accelerated memcpy routines to fallback
to boring memcpy if may_use_simd() is false.
