drm/i915: Make sure wm block/lines are non-decreasing

Browse Source 
The watermark algorithm sometimes produces results where higher
watermark levels have smaller blocks/lines watermarks than the lower
levels. That doesn't really make sense as the corresponding latencies
are supposed to be non-decreasing. It's unclear how the hardware
responds to such watermark values, so it seems better to avoid that
case and just make sure the values are always non-decreasing.

Here's an example how things change for such a case on a GLK NUC:
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]   level  wm0, wm1, wm2, wm3, wm4, wm5, wm6, wm7, twm, swm, stwm -> *wm0,*wm1,*wm2,*wm3,*wm4,*wm5,*wm6,*wm7,*twm, swm, stwm
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]   lines    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->    4,   4,   4,   2,   2,   2,   2,   2,   0,   0,    0
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]  blocks    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->   11,  11,  12,   7,   7,   7,   7,   7,  25,   0,    0
 [PLANE:70:cursor A] min_ddb    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->   12,  12,  13,   8,   8,   8,   8,   8,  26,   0,    0
->
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]   level  wm0, wm1, wm2, wm3, wm4, wm5, wm6, wm7, twm, swm, stwm -> *wm0,*wm1,*wm2,*wm3,*wm4,*wm5,*wm6,*wm7,*twm, swm, stwm
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]   lines    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->    4,   4,   4,   4,   4,   4,   4,   4,   0,   0,    0
 [PLANE:70:cursor A]  blocks    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->   11,  11,  12,  12,  12,  12,  12,  12,  25,   0,    0
 [PLANE:70:cursor A] min_ddb    0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,   0,    0 ->   12,  12,  13,  13,  13,  13,  13,  13,  26,   0,    0

Whether this actually helps on any display blinking issues is unclear.
