The only prime test that could be made generic is the kms one, which
still requires crc to make sure the stuff actually works. Everything
else is kinda device specific (and vgem is just the test vehicle to
make writing a testcase possible without actually needing 2 gpus).
Maybe we could do a dumb buffer export, then mmap test, but that
doesn't exist. I think for the prime+kms one there's actually patches
floating around to make it generic.
For the others I really don't think you can make them much generic.

Unfortunately not (yet). I have this dream that once we have the
kernels on gitlab I'll make igt runs on a qemu run with vkms+vgem only
happen, as the first baseline. But we're some ways off from that still
