I would claim it's not the same bug on IVB. The workaround very specifically
says HSW GT1 only. The failure signature itself is pretty generic, it just
suggests the VS went off and did something stupid, and the VF was unable to fill
the URB. (That's just my best guess) I do apologize if I inadvertently made a
connection to the IVB bug issue.

So, what is your point? I'm willing to concede we don't know all the facts, but
the [previous version of this] patch demonstrably fixes hangs on HSW GT1.
