Can you please give us some more information on the WARNs you are
encountering? Any bug numbers? Which platforms? Do we have test cases
for these in IGT? If you can describe the steps to reproduce, we can
try to write some test cases.
I have already debugged bugs related to this WARN, and as far as I
remember, in most cases we only got a few WARN instances, not
"hundreds" of WARNs.
The patch itself is fine, but having a way to trigger all the WARNs -
not just the first one - with i915.mmio_debug would be cool too.
