very noble purpose, but...

... this is quite an intricate web of functions calling each
other.

Is there any simplier way to do this? This is that kind of code
that if you go on holiday for a few days you forget what you
wrote.

I do need three drawing boards and 24 fingers for keeping track
of what's happening here. :)

can't we pr_info directly here and spare a function?

is this really making the code better? Is it a big deal to
clearly use

		{ i915_priolist, sizeof(i915_priolist) },
		{ i915_sched_attr, sizeof(i915_sched_attr) },
		{ i915_sched_node, sizeof(i915_sched_node) },
