In some debug scenarios, it might be interesting to load
a platform without support for the render command streamer.
Add a module parameter to allow this platform configuration.

Interesting, aside from that we shall never add a new modparam for users
to beat us with except under extreme duress, I would have made this a
ring_mask. Default to -1ull, mask off the rings you wish to exclude.

For the use I have in mind, we will have to treat the ids as uabi. So it
can't be a simple case of matching up to our internal mask. I guess it
will just have to be a list of correspondences.
