The evidence suggests that we need to start treating writes via GGTT as
incoherent for gen10+, that is that they are internally buffered and not
immediately visible via a read along a different physical path.

Looks like it. And we don't have better explanations at this point.

Applied, err on the side of safety. We can try setting it to true later
and see how it fares then.
