TBH, I don't really understand POSTING_READ that well. If it just
requires that any read request made it through to the MCH (or whatever),
then sure I can replace the POSTING_READ. Obviously though this is
reading GTFIFODBG, and not FORCEWAKE, so you tell me.

As for READ_NOTRACE, I'm all for that. I'll wait to reroll the patch
until you respond to the above though.
