[PATCH 3.2 105/200] drm/i915: Prevent MI_DISPLAY_FLIP straddling two cachelines on IVB

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Mar 30 2014 - 19:57:24 EST


3.2.56-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ville SyrjÃlà <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f66fab8e1cd6b3127ba4c5c0d11539fbe1de1e36 upstream.

According to BSpec the entire MI_DISPLAY_FLIP packet must be contained
in a single cacheline. Make sure that happens.

v2: Use intel_ring_begin_cacheline_safe()
v3: Use intel_ring_cacheline_align() (Chris)
