Hm I was trying to think up a few ways this could work, but didn't
come up with anything reasonable. Forcing the compositor to boost the
entire chain (for gl composited primary plane fallback) is something
the kernel can easily do too. Also only makes sense for priority
boost, not so much for clock boosting, since clock boosting only
really needs the final element to be boosted.

Yeah it's definitely very useful for testing ... One option could be a
hacky debugfs interface, where you write a fd number and deadline and
the debugfs read function does the deadline setting. Horribly, but
since it's debugfs no one ever cares. That's at least where we're
hiding all the i915 hacks that igts need.
