One reason for multi-stage, IMO, is that GVT needs to do a snapshot
of initial MMIO state before i915 driver does actual initialization. That
snapshot will be presented to each VM which can then observe same
state as it would observe on a bare metal. Then the majority of
initialization needs to wait after i915 driver completes initialization. 
Zhi can correct me here.

Thanks
Kevin
