I explicitly wanted to avoid touching GMBUS4 register, as the real cause 
of the failure is not clear.

But, as Yinghai Lu points out, the problem is most likely caused by 
interrupt disabling not working properly (see his very good point 
regarding DisINTx+ and INTx+ discrepancy), so zeroing the register out 
should work .... and it indeed does in my case, hence the (tested) patch 
below.

I think it's a 3.9-rc material, and I am all open to debug this further 
for 3.10 so that the race is closed and gmbus irqs can be used on Gen4 
platform properly.




From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>
Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: stop using GMBUS IRQs on Gen4 chips

Commit 28c70f162 ("drm/i915: use the gmbus irq for waits") switched to
using GMBUS irqs instead of GPIO bit-banging for chipset generations 4
and above.

It turns out though that on many systems this leads to spurious interrupts
being generated, long after the register write to disable the IRQs has been
issued.

Flushing of the register writes by POSTING_READ() directly after the register
write doesn't work either.

Disable using of GMBUS IRQs on Gen4 systems before the root cause is found and
revert back to old behavior.
