Christian, I know point. But there is a hang issue if we would like try to
disable/enable gfxoff with SMC message at runtime. Actually, I am trying to
find a good sequence to fix it. After that, I can even expose an debugfs
interface to configure that. So I have to skip the test for the moment when
gfx is in "idle".

Thanks,
Ray
