    drm/i915: add a context parameter to {en, dis}able zero address mapping

I built a Xenial test kernel with this commit reverted. The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1609242

Can you test that kernel and report back if it has the bug or not?

Note, to test this kernel, you need to install both the linux-image adn linux-image-extra .deb packages.
