Thanks.
This still forces me to upgrade to a higher cairo version, not sure
which to which more depends this will lead.

So, the root-cause for my issue is not intel-gfx related?
BIOS? Quirk needed?
Other areas?

( I have seen some mm/soft-dirty fixes in mainline... Is
CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY=y an option to play with? Or how to interpret
this snooped/LLC dirty outputs I had sent? )

P.S.: Commits in recent mainline:

mm: save soft-dirty bits on file pages
mm: save soft-dirty bits on swapped pages
