Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: kill set_need_resched

hmm, looks like I cargo-cult'd the same into msm.

I guess in i915 (and ttm) case, the issue arises due to need for CPU
access to buffer via GTT?  In which case I should be safe to drop the
set_need_resched() as well? (Since CPU always has direct access to the
pages.)  Or am I missing something about the original issue that
necessitated set_need_resched()?

BR,
