I don't think it has to do with execlists. Many of the registers are
part of the context image even in ring buffer mode AFAIK.

This is a bit weird. The default context should have restore inhibit==1
so it shouldn't clobber the CACHE_MODE_1 register. There was a specific magic
dance you're supposed to do when accessing such registers with mmio, but here
we do the write even before the first context switch.
Apparently there was some kind of problem with CACHE_MODE_0 on snb too:

drm/i915: Set the Stencil Cache eviction policy to non-LRA mode.
but IIRC I wasn't able to reproduce it when I tried.
Maybe we need to delay these register writes until we've switched to the default
context?
