Previously, we just went ahead and emitted MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START as
normal. If we are near enough to the end, this can cause us to start a
new BO just for the MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START which messes up chaining. We
always reserve enough space at the end for an MI_BATCH_BUFFER_START so
we can just increment cmd_buffer->batch.end prior to emitting the
command.
