So far we are using frontbuffer tracking for everything and ignoring that PSR has a HW capable HW tracking for many modern usages of GPU on Core platforms and newer Atom ones. One reason for that is that we were trying to keep same infrastructure in place for VLV/CHV than the rest of platforms. But also because when this infrastructure was created the front-buffer-tracking origin wasn't that good and stable how it is today after Paulo reworked it to attend FBC cases. However this PSR implementation without HW tracking died on gen8LP. And newer platforms are starting to demand more HW tracking specially with PSR2 cases in mind. By disabling and re-enabling PSR totally every time we believe someone is going to change the front buffer content we don't allow PSR HW tracking to do this job and specially compromising the whole idea of PSR2 case where the HW tracking detect only the damaged area and do a partial screen update. So, from now on, on the platforms that has hw_tracking let's rely more on HW tracking. This also is the case in used by other drivers and more validated by SV teams. So I hope that this will lead us to less misterious bugs. v2: Only do this for platform that actually has hw tracking. v3 from DK Do this only for flips, small gradual changes are better.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
