As you mentioned, this is not related to current patch and this patch doesn't
touch these particular lines of code.  So, I think it's better to make a
separate patch for this if you think it's needed.

Clearing the DD bit will end up driver and hardware writing to close memory
locations at the same time leading to cache trashing and poor performance.

Anyway additional write is unnecessary, because we know exactly which descriptors
we need to check.
