Linux kernel source tree
3800cd1953
As we now never read back our current head position from the CSB pointers register, and the HW itself doesn't use it to prevent overwriting unread CSB entries, we do not need to keep updating the register. As it turns out this register is not listed as being shadowed, and so requires forcewake -- but we haven't been taking forcewake around it so the writes has probably been regularly dropped. Fortuitously, we only read the value after a reset where it did not matter, and zero was the right answer (well, close enough). Mika pointed out that this was how we used to do it (accidentally!) before he fixed it in commit |

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
