I thought we needed this, but looking at the "User Mode Privileged Commands" of the spec, it seems like this register is not allowed to be written. So unless this register is put in a whitelist somewhere in the future, I think it's safe to drop this patch. As a preventative measure, I don't see this as harmful - but I don't feel I have any authority to suggest whether we keep this in or not. -- Ben Widawsky, Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
