humn... and now we know it is backed by struct pages? I'm not sure I
follow what we didn't know before and now we do.

Thomas / Matthew, could you take another look herer if it seems correct
to you.


thanks

To make i915 more architecture-neutral and be less paranoid, lets attempt to
use drm_clflush_sg to flush the pages for when the GPU wants to read
from main memory.
