This is the default value after reset. I have experimented with other
values and nothing improves above noise level. Further, my suggestion to
using 0x00810000 will cause a gpu hang...so there is dragons here.

As you are writing the same default value that is already in register,
and there is no indication that we should refresh anything, I would
say this patch is not needed until someone comes along and shows
something better than what the default is.

Thanks,
