Having transitioned to using PIPECONTROL to combine the flush with the breadcrumb write using their post-sync functions, assume that this will resolve the serialisation with the subsequent MI_USER_INTERRUPT. That is when inspecting the breadcrumb after an interrupt we can rely on the write being posted (i.e. the HWSP will be coherent). Testing using gem_sync shows that the PIPECONTROL + CS stall does serialise the command streamer sufficient that the breadcrumb lands before the MI_USER_INTERRUPT. The same is not true for MI_FLUSH_DW.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
