I don't get it. Previously we told the hardware to save the extended
context on !hsw, and now we don't. That doesn't seem correct to me.

We don't use the extended state elsewhere. I'd always been dubious of
the origins/intentions of this line of code since it claims only to be
for enabling RS on HSW...

i.e. commit e80f14b6d36e3e07111cf2ab084ef8dd5d015ce2

    drm/i915: Don't save/restore RS when not used

Umm. On SNB at least 3DSTATE_POLY_STIPPLE_PATTERN seems to be part of
the extended state, and on IVB/VLV SOL state is there. Mesa uses all of
that.

? It did exactly what it said, ie. avoid setting the RS save/restore
bits on HSW+ while leaving the ext save/restore enabled on older
platforms.

Another option is to enable extended state save restore for both HSW and
the older platforms so we would get both features (RS save/restore and
Extended State Save enable)?

Seems the reason for this confusion is that the we have the exact same
bit positions in MI_SET_CONTEXT but it got renamed starting from HSW and up.

If the bit has been renamed it might be good to add at least a new #define
with a _HSw suffix and better name, just to make it clear what's going on.
gcc will see through this and fold down the different conditions to just
one.

I'll do that in the next revision and also add the igt tag you require.
In the meantime, please check the igt approach I sent is the correct one.
