I had forgotten we did the copy of intel_device_info into
drm_i915_private and still lived in the pre-PCH_NOP days.

if (compile_time_constant) is dead-code eliminated into the single
branch (without the jmp).
Hmm, the big advantage (not useful here) is __builtin_choose_expr() can
be used as an lvalue. Otherwise it doesn't look like it will generate
more readable code than the current macro.

It's the style we have been using elsewhere, certainly in new code
(hopefully!). Do the general test during init, then later we ask whether
the init suceeded before using the feature.
