Doesn't current solution always enable the optimization in a safe and more clear way?
No, we also need this for gfx8 where gfxoff is currently not implemented.
Additional to that we mix common frontend handling into the backend with
this approach.
But you could clean up the code in amdgpu_ib_schedule() quite a bit.

1. for gfx8/9/10 we use load_ce_ram in context_control to control the optimization.
2. for gfx6/7, we directly drop the preamble ib.

Subject: Re: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: optimize to drop preamble IB for old GPUs
Well NAK, as discussed checking the global flag is more flexible since it will still enable the preamble drop when gfxoff is disabled.
