And we don't really know at this point, since i915.enable_guc_submission
is resolved later.

if (HAS_GUC_SCHED(dev_priv) && i915.enable_guc_submission) is
conservative enough.

Then we are screwed :)

-       if (HAS_GUC_SCHED(dev_priv)) {

                ggtt->mappable_end = min(ggtt->mappable_end, ggtt->base.total);

This is purely guess work. Feel free to supply the mising details...
