disable ppgtt on cherryview/braswell
With ppgtt enabled the contents of struct gen6_ppgtt are overwritten
leading to unexpected values for vma pointer such as 0 and 1.
Multiple people have reported problems with 6.9 on cherryview/braswell
with traces along the lines of
uvm_fault(0xffffffff8214ea68, 0xb8, 0, 1) -> e
kernel: page fault trap, code=0

The "use drm_mm from linux 5.7.y" commit made last October is
implicated in the change in behaviour but does not itself have any
cherryview/braswell specific changes. There is at least one report on
misc@ which suggests this occurred in some situations with 6.8 which
lacks that change.
Thanks to the people who reported this in particular Matthias Pressfreund
who tested many patches.
