I did check. At the moment we have just a few HAS_PCH_IBX calls in our
driver. The only possible issues may be inside intel_hdmi.c and
intel_dp.c (and they need more investigation).

My biggest worry here is being "future-proof": are we sure whenever
someone suggests adding HAS_PCH_IBX we'll remember that machines
without a PCH return true for HAS_PCH_IBX? This is highly
counter-intuitive. I really think that in future hardware enablement
code we'll replace a lot of the "if (HAS_PCH_SPLIT) { foo(); } else {
bar(); }" code for "if (HAS_PCH_NEW) { baz(); } else if (HAS_PCH_OLD)
{ foo(); } else { bar(); }".

Thanks,
Paulo
