If you haven't noticed, igt already does exist in a reset=[01] universe.
We are aaiting on the per-engine reset tests to actually enable
i915.reset=2. For coverage we need both, even i915.reset=2 may fallback
to i915.reset=1 in some unlikely situations.

That was the flavour of irc conversation yesterday. Instead of using
module parameters, we create a debugfs interface. The parameter will
only be set/adjusted while the debugfs fd was held open, so that we
would get automatic cleanup on process exit. It also means we should be
able to kill a few more module options that shouldn't exist to tempt
users.
