nb/intel/sandybridge/gma: Always initialize DP buffer translation
These settings should be always made by the firmware, no matter if we
set up graphics or not. It looks like Linux doesn't even know these
registers.
The values are taken from the PRMs for Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge [1,
2]. They match the settings that were done in the native graphics path
for Ivy Bridge. I expect the differences to be an update (i.e. the set-
tings we did on the Sandy Bridge path were just outdated). Also, these
settings affect the PCH and not the CPU which are independent from each
other.
