We want to use the GTT for reading back objects upon an error so that we
have exactly the information that the GPU saw. However, it is verboten
to access snoopable pages through the GTT and causes my PineView GPU to
throw a page fault instead.
This has not been a problem in the past as we only dumped ringbuffers
and batchbuffers, both of which must be uncached. However, the
introduction of HWS page dumping leads to a read of a snooped object
through the GTT. This was introduced by
commit f3ce3821393e31a3f1a8ca6c24eb2d735a428445
