It can be useful to be able to disable certain features (e.g. the
entire scheduler) via a module parameter for debugging purposes. A
parameter has the advantage of not being a compile time switch but
without implying that it can be changed dynamically at runtime.
+module_param_named(scheduler_override, i915.scheduler_override, int, 0600);
+MODULE_PARM_DESC(scheduler_override, "Scheduler override mask (0 = none, 1 = direct 
submission [default])");
Is this consistent with the other *enable* booleans?
Initially there were a whole bunch of override flags for disabling/tweaking specific bits of the scheduler's operation. Since these extras now only exist in an internal debugging patch that is not going to be upstreamed, I guess it probably should be simplified to a bool rather than a flags word.
