Yeah I'm really hoping other vendors could join the fun, and long-term
we'd have a real kms validation suite. There's always going to be a need
for vendor-specific tests (and we're happy to merge them, see e.g. vc4),
but having a test suite that tries to be generic as much as possible, for
an uapi that tries to be generic too, seems like a really good idea.

Very much welcome on board!

Aside: If there's anything we can do to help convince your management that
this is good idea (like the rename from intel-gpu-tools to igt gpu tests
we've done), please bring it up.

Cheers, Daniel
