drm/i915: Skip switch to kernel context if already done

Some engines are never user or already sitting idle in the kernel
context and for those we can skip flushing the current context for
i915_gem_switch_to_kernel_context(). We used to perform this
optimisation but that was removed for convenience of converting over to
multiple timelines and handling the pending request queues.

From the perspective of writing selftests, reducing the number of
background operations on the engines makes defining assertions easier.
