Nope. All full-ppgtt platforms (ivb/byt/hsw) suffer from spontaneously
loosing track of the right page directories and end up executing
garbage. It correlates with load, so frequently makes igt (and a few
tests in particular) die, along with piglit, webgl conformance,
benchmarking and even eventually light loads on composited desktops.

I've made the pd uncached, added copious flushing, forced switch_mm
every time, added noops, cacheline alignment, srm, forced the execution
of batches to be synchronous, and yet IPEHR != *ACTHD. The register and
command state looks valid. The gpu resets ok and runs fine until the
error strikes again.

[So I need to test whether switch_mm(aliasing_ppgtt) on every batch fails
as well, and whether i915.enable_rc6=0 masks it. There is the worrying
bits in bspec that talk of non-RCS as being part of the render context
state, but only the RCS pd registers are shown in the context diagrams.
I guess I should inspect the context state and see if I can spot the other
registers. If context restore (and with rc6 that could happen at any time)
switched the pd on the other rings, that would be a nice snafu.]

I would suggest that full-ppgtt be disabled unless someone else has had
better luck finding a hsd or figuring out the missing magic.
