On HSW/BDW with VT-d active the first tile row scanned out after the first async flip of the frame often ends up corrupted. Whether the corruption happens or not depends on the scanline on which the async flip happens, but the behaviour seems very consistent. Ie. the same set of scanlines (which are most scanlines) always show the corruption. And another set of scanlines (far less of them) never shows the corruption. I discovered that disabling the fetch-stride stretching feature cures the corruption. This is some kind of TLB related prefetch thing AFAIK. We already disable it on SNB primary planes due to a documented workaround. The hardware folks indicated that disabling this should be fine, so let's go with that. And while we're here, let's document the relevant bits on all pre-skl platforms. Fixes: |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
