Thanks for the bugzilla link. The bugzilla mentions lots of mailing
list discussion. Can you include links to some of that?
IIUC this basically just turns off PCI power management for the GPU.
Can you do that with something like the following? I don't know
anything about DRM, so I don't know where you could save the pm_cap,
but I'm sure the driver could keep it somewhere.
