OK, so the table of recommended values is in the "performance guide".
I don't actually know where the chv numbers came from since there's no
w/a for this, nor could I find a related hsd with any numbers.

Anyway, using these values Harri's membwtester texturing micro benchmark
gained >10% which seems nice. The other numbers seemed unchanged. I also
ran xonotic [1] but didn't see any significant changes in performance.

So based on that I'm fine with adjusting this on CHV.

[1] First I got crap results, but that turned out to be the CPU
    side making a mess of things. So it seems we're back to having
    to use taskset to pin the process to one core on chv :(
