I've already replied to Jesse idea on irc, so let me repeat it here: I
considered the ugliness and dropped the idea. If things like this get
common (i.e. reusing the display block, which dictates the master irq
controller, with a different gt render core) we could introduce a vfunc.
But I don't like splitting this up just for the sake of it, because the
display controller on ironlake and snb _is_ pretty much the same thing (at
least wrt interrupt handling), the thing that's different is the gt core.

Meh, the +LOC argument was just bikeshed, my real argument is that you
screw up your context abstraction by trying to wrestle it into something
that it isn't suitable for.
