I don't think so, as I have writeback working without this patch on the
RV350 in this PowerBook. So I think this function needs to be split,
probably between R600 and older.

Also, there's more code at least potentially affected by this, e.g. in: 

      * cik_compute_ring_get_rptr(), cik_compute_ring_get_wptr(),
        cik_compute_ring_set_wptr(), cik_get_ih_wptr()
      * si_get_ih_wptr()
      * evergreen_get_ih_wptr()
      * r600_get_ih_wptr()
      * radeon_fence_write(), radeon_fence_read()
      * radeon_ring_backup()
