The qemu drivers don't register as vgaarb clients though. Which easily
explains why igd always wins the primary selection, no matter how you
order your hardware.
So, should they register? The drivers don't need access to the vga
registers[1][2].

[1] Well, except cirrus, but that is deprecated anyway.
[2] And bochs-drm, when running on old qemu versions, where the
stdvga has no mmio bar yet. But those qemu versions don't
support igd pass-through.
