Shirish S 8f4039fefd drm/amdgpu: change gfx8 ib test to use WB
This patch is extends the usage of WB in
gfx8's ib test which was originally
implemented in the below upstream patch
"ed9324a drm/amdgpu: change gfx9 ib test to use WB"

For reference below are the reasons for switching
to WB:

1)Because when doing IB test we don't want to involve KIQ health
status affect, and since SCRATCH register access is go through
KIQ that way GFX IB test would failed due to KIQ fail.

2)acccessing SCRATCH register cost much more time than WB method
because SCRATCH register access runs through KIQ which at least could
begin after GPU world switch back to current Guest VF

README

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.
