Chris spent quite some effort to dump less crap into the rings on gen6, and your description here sounds like we only need this when flushing write caches. Or it might only apply to CS writes (in which case this is at the wrong spot). In any case, can you please double check where exactly we need this and only add it there, with a neat comment explaining things added? I'm bitching because afair the CS stuff the windows driver emits (of which I've seen some traces) only emits one such 8x MI_WRITE block per batch, whereas your code here would emit 2 such 2x MI_WRITE blocks.
