Hmm, I guess is misunderstood the message thread flow here and didn't
realize there was another patch necessary as well.  I did find that just
this one patch caused the IGT to start passing where it had failed
before (on BXT), so not sure why I didn't run into problems.  I did
merge in a couple un-related TSC patches (required to keep my BXT stable
in general) before testing, but I don't think that would have changed
the behavior here.
