Hi Chris,
I agree, this could be applicable to ivb also. But we are constrained by
the availability of ivb/hsw machines and we're not able to test it on
those. We didn't want to cause any regression on those platforms. Thats
why we were limiting our patch to vlv only with a FIXME comment. We've
done this for other WAs also.

If required we can put this patch for full GEN7 (not tested on ivb/hsw)
and keep our fingers crossed! :)

Regards,
Sourab
