+Subject: [PATCH] Default to igfx_off
+
+This option seems to causes way to many issues, it is
+being investigated by Intel's chipset team for months now and
+we still don't have any outcome.
+
+The results so far are "black screen when starting X",
+"system hangs when using GL", "system does not resume".
+
+The patch adds an intel_iommu=igfx_on option, which makes it opt in,
+rather than opt out.
