If that is to be in device info, it doesn't require an extra codename,
it requires an extra device info with the flag.

This ties to the goal of making dev_priv->info a pointer to the static
const data in i915_pci.c i.e. making ->info truly const. There's three
categories of info:

 1) immutable device properties
 2) properties set once during probe, immutable afterwards
 3) runtime

Currently we more or less happily conflate these, along with some module
parameters too. The mkwrite_device_info() use has profilerated much
wider than it was ever intended; we need to nuke that.

We also have HAS_FOO() and IS_FOO() macros that do checks on pci id or
gen or platform or a combination of them. It's a mess, and it's not
getting better without conscious effort.

BR,
Jani.
