I think I understand the documentation part, not sure how that could be
solved. Perhaps RPM-held asserts right before the point where the HW
needs to be on?

What do you mean by hard to track down bugs? Couldn't that also be
tackled by asserts?

Ok, looks interesting. But as you said we would have to then make
callers of i915_gem_release_mmap() wake up the device, which isn't
strictly necessary. (and imo as such goes somewhat against the
documentation argument)
