It would be a problem for older platforms like Weybridge but Sandybridge has
fixed the IGD IOTLB invalidation times. Although I have not done actual
measurement on this yet.
Given this quirks is for a corner case power management issue (not easily
duplicated), I will submit a patch to disable it by default until we can answer
you about the uses of the MMIO registers and implement the locking mechanism
properly.
