maybe this split should another way:

	i915_reg.h = basic typedefs and macros
	intel_reg.h = register definitions
and
	intel_display_reg.h = display related regs (your goal)
	intel_guc_reg.h = GuC related regs (we already have that!)

then we follow the rule to use i915_ prefix for driver specific
code and intel_ prefix for hardware originated definitions
