With base on latest findings, RC6p seems to be respondible for RC6-related issues on Sandy Bridge platform. To work-around those issues, the previous solution was to completely disable RC6 on Sandy Bridge for the past few releases, even if plain RC6 was not giving any issues. What this patch does is preventing RC6p from being enabled on Sandy Bridge even if users enable RC6 via a kernel parameter. So it won't change the defaults in any way, but will ensure that if users do enable RC6 manually it won't break their machines by enabling this extra state. Proper fix for this (enabling specific RC6 states according to the GPU generation) were proposed for the -next kernel, but we are too late in the release process now to pick such changes.

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
