I tried couple of versions. One with Chris's idea to move
intel_device_info_runtime_init() to i915_driver_init_mmio() didn't turn
out to be a success.

I also tried to set num_pipes to 0 in case of display disable already
in i915_driver_init_early(). That approach didn't turn out to be a
success either.

https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/33522/

I'll give it a go for a patch that doesn't register audio in case of
disabled display.
