[PATCH] drm/i915: fix long-standing SNB regression in powerconsumption after resume

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Sun Jul 14 2013 - 12:30:46 EST


This patch fixes regression in power consumtion of sandy bridge gpu, which
exists since v3.6 Sometimes after resuming from s2ram gpu starts thinking that
it's extremely busy. After that it never reaches rc6 state.

Bug was introduce by commit b4ae3f22d238617ca11610b29fde16cf8c0bc6e0
("drm/i915: load boot context at driver init time"). Without documentation
it's not clear what is happening here, probably this breaks internal state of
hardware ring buffers and confuses RPS engine. Fortunately keeping forcewake
during whole initialization sequence in gen6_init_clock_gating() fixes this bug.
