So if this happens first, we set up intel_private.driver but leave the
refcount at 0. Then i915 loads and we set up intel_private.driver again,
and bump the refcount to 0. Well, we should end up pointing
intel_privatee.driver at the same thing both times so not really a
problem I suppose.

So yeah, I think this ought to work

I guess we could also trim the gen>=2 gmch pci ids from the agp
driver's pci id table, to avoid even probing it.
