I think a better check would be to lsmod | grep i915 and bail if that's
false. Yeah that'll still fall over if you have unloading disabled, but
either don't do that, or have some other check instead of rmmod i915 to
assess whether unloading works.

And please don't hide such changes in another commit without even
mentioning. i-g-t isn't free-for-all anymore, and if too much stuff slips
through then we'd have to lock down commit process a lot. I kinda don't
want that, since I still see plenty of benefits in making it simple to
create more tests.
