Subject: [PATCH 3.15 039/122] drm/i915/bdw: Only use 2g GGTT for 32b platforms

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

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

From: Ben Widawsky <benjamin.widawsky@...el.com>

commit 562d55d991b39ce376c492df2f7890fd6a541ffc upstream.

Daniel requested in the bug that I use a 3GB fallback size. Since this
is not in the spec as a valid size, I decided against it. We could
potentially add a patch to bump it to 3GB on top of this one.

This probably should be CC: stable - but I'll let the powers that be
decide that one.

Regression from a revert of the revert:
commit 7907f45bf9f67a1c5e5d4ae05bab428d7c2f43b2
Author: Ben Widawsky <benjamin.widawsky@...el.com>

update comment

v3. Update comment to not wrap (Daniel).
