Actually we had a not so nice internal mail thread with our hardware guys and it looks like we have tons of hardware bugs/exceptions that sometimes PCIe BARs are only readable or only writable. So it turned out that always caching with bidirectional won't work for us either. Additional to that I'm not sure how i915 actually triggered the issue, cause with the current code that shouldn't be possible. But independent of that I came to the conclusion that we first need to get to a common view of what the fences in the reservation mean or otherwise the whole stuff here isn't going to work smooth either. So working on that for now and when that's finished I will come back to this problem here again.
