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()?
