drm/i915: Disable semaphores by default on SNB
Semaphores still cause problems on some machines: > From Udo Steinberg: > > With Linux-3.2-rc6 I'm frequently seeing GPU hangs when large amounts of > text scroll in an xterm, such as when extracting a tar archive. Such as this > one (note the timestamps): > > I can reproduce it fairly easily with something > as simple as: > > while true; do dmesg; done This patch turns them off on SNB while leaving them on for IVB.
