iris_pte_encode was split up after the regressing commit in

commit 4d15c145a6234d999c0452eec0d275c1fbf0688c

    drm/i915: Use eLLC/LLC by default when available

Hence I think that one should be patched, too (QA doesn't have an iris
machine afaik, so no regression report expected). And since I have
some open questions about Chris WT-for-Iris patch too I think it's
best to spin a v4 of this one here.
