Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Set guardband clipping workaround bit in the right
 register.

commit 26b6e44afb58432a5e998da0343757404f9de9ee upstream.

A previous patch, namely:

commit bf97b276ca04cee9ab65ffd378fa8e6aedd71ff6
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>
Date:   Wed Apr 11 20:42:41 2012 +0200

    drm/i915: implement w/a for incorrect guarband clipping

accidentally set bit 5 in 3D_CHICKEN, which has nothing to do with
clipping.  This patch changes it to be set in 3D_CHICKEN3, where it
belongs.

The game "Dante" demonstrates random clipping issues when guardband
clipping is enabled and bit 5 of 3D_CHICKEN3 isn't set.  So the
workaround is actually necessary.
