All 3,

We can even combine several functions by inheriting the vfuncs from
intel_ringbuffer.c, and ~only overloading the init/add_request vfuncs.
i.e. call intel_blah_engine_init_execlists after setuping the legacy vfuncs
and common init from intel_blah_engine_init. At the same time, we can
apply some of the same improvements (such as irq_enable_mask) back to the
older gen.
