We were supposed to have VT-d disabled from BIOS in all our machines, but
apparently that had been enabled when SkullCanyon was in other use for a while.
I.e. it was only machine with VT-d enabled.

Media, not 3D? (That's more than I saw on SkullCanyon in media test-cases.)
I've now enabled VT-d on few other machines (BDW GT2, BXT, SKL GT2, KBL GT3e)
to get you a bit more perf info. I'll add that info here later this week.</pre>
