I coded it up, and it's not really too bad. I've put a dump of my local
changes below. But there are a couple of problems.

First, I don't have a solution for the ordering of initialization. It
just happens to work out for me right now.

Even so, the code only works if I delay loading i915. apple-gmux is
definitely initializing first so the i2c mux should be getting switched,
but the transactions are failing.

[   19.445658] [drm:gmbus_xfer], GMBUS [i915 gmbus panel] timed out after NAK 
[   19.445672] [drm:gmbus_xfer], GMBUS [i915 gmbus panel] NAK for addr: 0050 r(1) 

But if I prevent i915 from being auto-loaded and load later on it works
fine. I haven't been able to figure out what's going on. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Seth
