This is not right, in so many levels.

First of all, I don't think we should hide DSB usage in the driver like
this. It needs to be explicit in the code.

I'm not sure if it's even possible to do it like this. When should the
writes take place? Who's going to "commit" the writes to DSB? The DSB
only makes sense for batches. In code with just I915_WRITE, you can't
tell whether the commit is needed or not.

You have a number of DSB engines per pipe, and this forces using just
one in dev_priv.

Please stick to the plan of adding the simplest API that I think we've
agreed on, the one that allows DSB use call sites to switch over to
intel_dsb_reg_write() etc. and allows us to tweak the guts of the DSB
implementation later. Then we don't need to change the DSB use sites so
much, merely the internals.

BR,
Jani.
