i965: perf: minimize the chances to spread queries across batchbuffers
Counter related to timings will be sensitive to any delay introduced
by the software. In particular if our begin & end of performance
queries end up in different batches, time related counters will
exhibit biffer values caused by the time it takes for the kernel
driver to load new requests into the hardware.
