I think most of the HAS_PCH_xxx are implicitly guarded because we've split
up the pch modeset into it's own functions. I think there might only be a
few issues in the encoder functions maybe. Have your checked all the
HAS_PCH_IBX checks there? If you want, I can go through the code, too.
Otherwise I really like this.
