Media has also changed, they're not using relocations anymore. Unless there's solid data performance tuning of any kind that gets in the way simply needs to be removed. Yes this is radical, but the codebase is in a state to require this. So either way we'd need to rebenchmark this if it's really required. Also if we really need this code still someone needs to fix the design, the current code is making layering violations an art form. > Anyway, without the debugfs churn it is more or less two line patch to fix > igfx + dgfx hybrid setup.

The minimal robust fix here is imo to stop us from upcasting dma_fence to i915_request if it's not for our device. Not sprinkle code here into the semaphore code.
