Using names initializers when filling out the watermark structs
saves you from having go look up the struct definition every
single time.

Thank you,

Thanks for the patch and for all the work, unfortunately it does not quite work as presented. I applied the patch correctly to drm-intel-nightly, and it compiles fine.

However, the following issues exist:

*) If you boot with the kernel parameter vga=792 (i.e. the same console resolutions as initiated by KMS) the system just hangs with a black screen. Booting aborts, nothing happens.

*) Watermark settings are *still* not correct. *SIGH*, *sigh*

intel_reg_read 0x20d8
0x20D8 : 0x11F0104

This is a watermark level of 4. As I said multiple times, the watermark register needs to be *AT LEAST* eight (in numbers, 8) to have a stable display. It is stable between 8 and 32.

To reproduce, use a panning display with xrandr:

xrandr --output DVI1 --mode 1024x768 --panning 2048x1536

then scroll, and see the display flicker.

Folks, I really appreciate all your effort, but I would be really happy if my comments on the wrong watermarks wouldn't be continuously ignored. I submitted patches, twice, thrice... all went into the trash.

Greetings,
	Thomas
