[Intel-gfx] i915 when using vaapi, screen only refreshes on mouse movement

[Brian J. Murrell]

I have noticed something strange on my Fedora 21 with i915.  If I am
using something that utilizes vaapi, like VLC for instance, the screen
only refreshes on mouse movements.

This becomes abundantly clear when I watch the clock on my panel for
example, which displays seconds on it.  It will sit at the same time and
not tick the seconds if I leave the mouse perfectly still.  As soon as I
move the mouse the clock updates and will continue to update as long as
I keep the mouse moving.

I am sure you will want more information but I am not sure what to
gather.  I am using the 3.18.7-200.fc21.x86_64 kernel.  Just let me know
what other information you need and I will be happy to provide it.

Cheers,
b.
