    drm/i915: Workaround to bump rc6 voltage to 450

    BIOS should be setting the minimum voltage for rc6 to be 450mV. Old or
    buggy BIOSen may not be doing this, so we correct it for them. Ideally
    customers should update the BIOS as only it would know the optimal
    values for the platform, so we leave that fact as a DRM_ERROR for the
    user to see.

in 3.8. The people we asked to test that patch continued to report issues
afterwards, so maybe we need to boost that value a little more, or maybe we
didn't have the same root cause.

What would be useful would a debugfs entry for us to see what values were
changed in the BIOS.
