[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4 2/6] drm/i915/pxp: Make intel_pxp_is_enabled implicitly sort PXP-owning-GT

[Teres Alexis, Alan Previn]

Not everything of course, but intel_feature_action(param1, ...) enforcing param1 to always be struct intel_feature_t i
assumed was what Rodrigo meant. And my intention wasn't to verify that rule but rather look for surrounding precedence
for any exceptions to it (i felt PXP was a candidate for an exception since its services and consumers are global but
its control-points are within the media tile alone).

Either way, this exception won't be required give the new design direction from Rodrigo based on that last reply to
patch #1. We will elevate pxp to be a global subsystem (despite the controls being gt specific).
