drm/i915: Reduce hangcheck frequency

By reducing the hangcheck frequency we check less often, conserving
resources, and still detect a lock up quickly. On a fast machine with a
slow GPU (like a Core2 paired with a 945G) it is easy for the hangcheck to
misfire as we check too fast.

Also once hung and if we fail to completely reset the chip, we have a
nasty habit of proclaming a hang many times a second and generating a
strobe-like display.
