Ok, will fix those.

Hm, right. I thought to enable the WA on CNL in case the same happens in
CI once the igt test is merged. It happens with the testcase somewhat
sporadically though but easy to repro with the FBC on/off method, so
I'll give it a go tomorrow on CNL as well.
I wonder if adding a better testcase doing only FBC on/off would make
sense (without the current delay during FBC enabling).
