Yes. I was just worried about some subtle semantic difference between
is_i8xx and is_i9xx and the generation number. I still look at IS_I965G()
and shudder. So for the first patch, I wanted something obvious and simple
that gave me the ability to switch(INTEL_INFO(dev)->gen). I'd like to
replace some of the coarse is_i9xx with more fine-grained capability bits
that are more self-descriptive and clear when they can be relied upon.
