I think this commit should cite the last commit which reverted rc6 on ilk:

commit 6567d748c4e94e3481e523803ec07ebd825c80d6
Author: Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk>
Date:   Sat Nov 10 10:00:06 2012 +0000

    Revert "drm/i915: enable rc6 on ilk again"

I agree that we could try this again (at least since the relocation
regression in 3.7 is fixed), but iirc it was rather unmistakably broken
with vt-d enabled, see:

commit cd7988eea561a70a4f98e431c1395f913672d626
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>
Date:   Sun Aug 26 20:33:18 2012 +0200

    drm/i915: disable rc6 on ilk when vt-d is enabled

So I think you need to pimp your commit a bit to essentially revert
6567d748c4e94e3481e523803 and also cite the above two commits.

Cheers, Daniel
