Thanks a lot for the help. I tried vanilla 6.10 and 6.11 drivers with
my RV730 (which I am using since it is a passive card, and fan
regulation is not functional on my RV770), and it did not improve
performance, so what I see is not a regression, and not your issue.
Sorry for the trouble.

Yes, I suppose the next thing to try on R600+ cards is the new EXA/XV
code (but I won't be able to make that work on F10).
