Default doesn't map onto a class-instance, it is vague and may map on to
whatever the kernel considers most convenient. And yes, when we are
iterating over HW engines and not I915_EXEC_$RING, we don't care for the
ambiguously defined uabi.

Shrug. It has to be temporary. #define have the advantage that the
compiler only complains when they differ, which was why I suggesting we
didn't use enum ;)
