Would be nice if you could cc intel-gfx@...ts.freedesktop.org next time, so I know our CI infrastructure is happy;

It wouldn't surprise me if it catches 1 or 2 abuses in i915.

Otherwise Reviewed-by: Maarten Lankhorst <maarten.lankhorst@...ux.intel.com>

Perhaps you could mail this to version to intel-gfx-trybot@...ts.freedesktop.org using git-send-email so we at least get i915 results?
