Hi Dale,

I actually see I915_MAX_GT more suited for in drv.h as it is a
description for i915 rather than the GT singularly.

We should see the GT as a standalone elemnt not aware of the
overall properties of the entire GPU.

While for_each_gt() is more an utility from intel_gt.

Personally, I do not even like this define: I think the number
of the GTs should be read during startup and stored in
drm_i915_private or similar, but this is another discussion.

Thank you,
Andi
