Ah, right.
Yeah, I got confused thinking this was the same as the old times when we
stored display directly in the structure. In that case, we would use
&i915->display and no dereferencing would happen.
Now we store a pointer to the display in i915 and we need
dereferencing in order to get the address.
Sorry for the noise!
