Note I've gone ahead and prepared a test kernel for the Fedora bug reports
with the following 3 commits reverted from 5.10.y :

520d05a77b2866eb ("drm/i915/gt: Clear CACHE_MODE prior to clearing residuals")
ecca0c675bdecebd ("drm/i915/gt: Restore clear-residual mitigations for Ivybridge, Baytrail")
48b8c6689efa7cd6 ("drm/i915/gt: Limit VFE threads based on GT")
(Note this are the 5.10.y hashes)

I know going this route is not ideal but it might be best for 5.10.y for now.

I will let you know if reverting these 3 actually helps once I hear back
from the reporters of the issue.

Regards,

Hans
