We commonly use an inheritance style approach to device parameters,
where later generations inherit the defaults from earlier generations
and then override settings that change. For example, in i915_pci.c
BDW_FEATURES pulls in HSW_FEATURES, makes a few changes for 48bit
contexts and then individual Broadwell stanzas make further adjustments
for different GT configs.

This causes a lot of warnings with make W=1 from -Woverride-init. We
could use
        #pragma GCC diagnostic push
        #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Woverride-init"
        ...
        #pragma GCC diagnostic pop
around the offenders, but the pattern is used frequently enough in the
driver to prefer just disabling the warning entirely.
