Chris Clayton wrote off list and the mentioned patch fixes the problem
for me too, as it does for others. I hope it make it's way into the tree

Hi Martin.


I can't contact you through LKML because I'm not subscribed, but I've
been working with Chris Wilson, one of the Intel
DRM developers to analyse and fix the corruption. We've got a patch that
fixes it for me and Norbert who also reported
the problem. The patch is at the bottom of this message.

Hope it helps.

Chris

That's just the enabling patch, everything was meant to be in place by
then.

Oh noes, care to try:
