If this was a new module that would be my preferance. But the kvmgt module already exists, so I thought it might be a good idea to keep the name.

Hmm. I suspect it could be done fairly easily, but from what I see it would still require to disable GUC at i915 module load time.
If you want I could look into that for an incremental patch, but to unblock the vfio/mdev work I'd like to do that in a separate stage.
