drm/i915: Disable caches for Global GTT.
commit d6a8b72edc92471283925ceb4ba12799b67c3ff8 upstream.
Global GTT doesn't have pat_sel[2:0] so it always point to pat_sel = 000;
So the only way to avoid screen corruptions is setting PAT 0 to Uncached.
MOCS can still be used though. But if userspace is trusting PTE for
cache selection the safest thing to do is to let caches disabled.
BSpec: "For GGTT, there is NO pat_sel[2:0] from the entry,
so RTL will always use the value corresponding to pat_sel = 000"
- System agent ggtt writes (i.e. cpu gtt mmaps) already work before
this patch, i.e. the same uncached + snooping access like on gen6/7
seems to be in effect.
- So this just fixes blitter/render access. Again it looks like it's
not just uncached access, but uncached + snooping. So we can still
hold onto all our assumptions wrt cpu clflushing on LLC machines.
v2: Cleaner patch as suggested by Chris.
v3: Add Daniel's comment
