[Intel-gfx] [resend] i915: high power consumption after suspend/resume

[Andrew Lutomirski]

Here's some more info.  I write a little script:

#!/bin/sh

for ((i=0; $i < 15; i=$i+1)); do cat
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/power_now; sleep 1 ; done

echo 'Wedging'
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_wedged

for ((i=0; $i < 15; i=$i+1)); do cat
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/power_now; sleep 1 ; done

I triggered the high power consumption twice today.  I logged out of
X, logged into a console, and ran the script each time.  (The first
time, I did 10 iterations, not 15.)  Here are the results:

9586000
9574000

and

7861000

7712000

7643000

so it looks like it's not a register setting after all.  Maybe my BIOS
leaves the renderer in some weird state.
