[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915/gtt: Enable full-ppgtt by default everywhere

[Chris Wilson]

We should we have all the kinks worked out and full-ppgtt now works
reliably on gen7 (Ivybridge, Valleyview/Baytrail and Haswell). If we can
let userspace have full control over their own ppgtt, it makes softpinning
far more effective, in turn making GPU dispatch far more efficient and
more secure (due to better mm segregation). On the other hand, switching
over to a different GTT for every client does incur noticeable overhead.

This has been run through piglit for ivb/vlv/hsw locally and hsw on
kernel's CI, but we would like at least one ack from Mesa as well. If
it's possible to run it through the full gamut of your testing, that
would be great.
