I fixed the default/enable/disable inconsistency in <https://github.com/01org/intel-vaapi-driver/commit/0dd6ba4e26d3abaa7e66265284ef81c746c13f20>.  Using 0/1 as default/on is probably fine, but it doesn't match the statement that it's definitely disabled if the option is zero.  (I don't mind which way around that gets fixed.)

I tested with this patch and it works fine on a Skylake GT3 (6260U), but it killed the whole machine when enabled on a Skylake GT2 (6300).  I haven't yet had chance to investigate that further (rebooting repeatedly is kindof inconvenient), but I will try to do so soon.

What platforms have you tested on?
