When we update the gen6 ppgtt page directories, we do so by writing the
new address into a reserved slot in the GGTT. It appears that when the
GPU reads that entry from the gsm, it uses its small cache and that we
need to invalidate that cache after writing. We don't see an issue
currently as we prefill the ppgtt page directories on creation; and only
create the single aliasing_ppgtt long before we start using the GGTT
(and so before the cache may have a conflicting entry).
