Just to clarify, I couldn't get i915.vbt_firmware working with a broken
ACPI OpRegion as intel_opregion_setup() bails out before it reaches
intel_load_vbt_firmware(). I worked around it by moving the fw load but
this isn't a long-term solution.

I need to fix ACPI OpRegion / my BIOS before any of this will work.
