Hi,

Thanks for putting the work into this. This conversion has been
requested for a long time. For clarity, should we call the module
i915_kvmgt?

How far would we be from dynamically modprobing/rmmoding the kvmgt
module in order to eliminate the enable_gvt parameter?

This list is also a concern. At the least the double underscore
functions should be eliminated from being exported.

Zhi and Zhenyu, can we have some further patches to clean that up?
