I'd like to amend this with the following (on this patch instead of the
other, so that ppl actually can find it with git blame):

"Furthermore actually setting bit12 results in gpu hangs both on snb and
ivb. Ben Widawsky discovered a ppt that claims that both bit12 and bit11
must be set, but that doesn't help either. And last but not least,
MI_FLUSH seems to work regardless of the setting of these bits."

Eric, Ben, is that ok?
