I was using a combination of tests, run in parallel to hit this bug. I need to 
get hold of
a system again to re-run. Are you saying you have also repro'd the bug just with
gem_concurrent_blit or just suggesting that it might be a good candidate ?

I'll also re-try without the flushing read, but I'm wary of removing this 
unless I can
understand why the mmio write has the same effect. It might be luck.
