See below for comments.

I think there's probably even more room for testing like this.  E.g. the
tiled swapping test could be done this way rather than trying to force
swapping.  Some of the races we try to induce could probably also be
done this way with code in the kernel to trigger the case we're worried
about...

Looks fine up to here.

This is a subtle change though...  Previously we'd try a ddc read
followed by a load detect if that failed.  With this, we'll only fallb
ack to load detect on pre-gen4.  Are you just trying to avoid using the
load detect code with the load_detect_test flag set, preferring only DDC
in that case?

Otherwise,
