Subject: [ 62/82] drm/i915:: Disable FBC on SandyBridge

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Chris Wilson <chris@...is-wilson.co.uk>

commit d56d8b28e9247e7e35e02fbb12b12239a2c33ad1 upstream.

Enabling FBC is causing the BLT ring to run between 10-100x slower than
normal and frequently lockup. The interim solution is disable FBC once
more until we know why.
