Code looks good.
Tested the patch with previous patches in the series.
[26/33] drm/i915/gt: Expose engine properties via sysfs
[27/33] drm/i915/gt: Expose engine->mmio_base via sysfs
The directories and files show up with expected values.
Verified that if engine does not have timeslices the
sysfs entry is not created.
