Mikulas Patocka 4aff6991e3 matroxfb: perform a dummy read of M_STATUS
commit 972754cfae upstream.

I had occasional screen corruption with the matrox framebuffer driver and
I found out that the reason for the corruption is that the hardware
blitter accesses the videoram while it is being written to.

The matrox driver has a macro WaitTillIdle() that should wait until the
blitter is idle, but it sometimes doesn't work. I added a dummy read
mga_inl(M_STATUS) to WaitTillIdle() to fix the problem. The dummy read
will flush the write buffer in the PCI chipset, and the next read of
M_STATUS will return the hardware status.

Since applying this patch, I had no screen corruption at all.
