drm/i915: Disable THP until we have a GPU read BW W/A
We seem to be missing some W/A for 2M pages and are getting a hit on raw GPU read bandwidths (even 30%) even though the GPU write bandwidths improve (even 10%). For now, disable THP, which is our only practical source of 2M pages until we have a W/A for the issue. v2: - Be explicit that we talk about GPU bandwidths (Eero) - s/deny/never/ because that's why (Chris) Reported-by: Valtteri Rantala <valtteri.rantala@intel.com> Fixes: b901bb89324a ("drm/i915/gemfs: enable THP") Signed-off-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@linux.intel.com> Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Cc: Valtteri Rantala <valtteri.rantala@intel.com> Cc: Eero Tamminen <eero.t.tamminen@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Tested-by: Valtteri Rantala <valtteri.rantala@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171127091233.7001-1-joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com
