Recently the kernel has switched to using a combined i915.enable_guc
rather than multiple i915.enable_guc_submission parameters.

Hmm, maybe I'm missing something, but as modparam represents actual driver
mode of operation where value '1' represents GuC submission mode and as we
no longer support fallback to execlist mode, I'm not sure that we should
turn on the second GEM_SUBMISSION_EXECLISTS bit here.

But since old modparam was interpreted in the similar way,

Execlists really means ring-per-context / lrc, as opposed to that we are
directly programming ELSP. If you feel creative, GEM_foo_LRC. (In tests
where is matters, it is used to determine if we can rely on having
independent rings between contexts.)

But you were meant to say "time for a GETPARAM!" Which will be a sad day
as it means that GuC represents an ABI break... :-p
