Hi,

apparently the Intel HD Graphics driver for Windows has a "IT Content" option
that can be either enabled or disabled, see following screenshot for example:

According to a post on the AVS Forum, enabling "IT Content" does the following:

Apparently there is no option for it on the AMDGPU Linux driver.

Can you please add an option to the AMDGPU Linux driver which allows to enable
the "IT Content" bit?
