gen8_ggtt_invalidate() is only needed for limitted set of platforms where GGTT is mapped as WC
I know there is supposed to be some kind hw snooping of the ggtt pte writes to invalidate the tlb, but are we sure GFX_FLSH_CNTL has no other side effects we depend on?
I spent some time searching through the gfxspec. This GFX_FLSH_CNTL register only seems to be for
invalidating TLB for GUnit and (from git log ) we started to do that to enable WC based GGTT updates.
Might be good to cite the relevant git commits in the commit message to make this clear. -Sima
So if I am not missing anything obvious then this should be safe.

otherwise this can cause unwanted side-effects on XE_HP platforms where GFX_FLSH_CNTL_GEN6 is not valid.
