Ok, up to here, all done. But BAT for an igt selftest? The criteria for
BAT is "catch the most amount of bugs in the least amount of time", for
which we like to have tests that exercise a lot of the driver very
quickly. I don't think this adds anything? [I would be very happy to be
proved wrong with some path coverage / kcov]. So I don't see much reason
to have it in BAT, and just leave it to shards/idle.
