[ 9.190503] i915: `Y' invalid for parameter `enable_guc_submission'
so looks like it refused to even load the module with the invalid knob in
place. That behaviour is slightly amusing since you can pass non-existing
modparams just fine, but apparently trying to pass an invalid value for a
modparam that does exist is fatal.</pre>
