This is the default value for the i915.force_probe module
parameter. Using the module parameter overrides this option.
- Force probe the driver for new Intel graphics devices that are
+ Force probe the i915 for Intel graphics devices that are
recognized but not properly supported by this kernel version. It is
recommended to upgrade to a kernel version with proper support as soon
as it is available.
+ It can also be used to block the probe of recognized and fully
+ supported devices.

Use "" to disable force probe. If in doubt, use this.

+ Use "<pci-id>[,<pci-id>,...]" to force probe the i915 for listed
devices. For example, "4500" or "4500,4571".
Use "*" to force probe the driver for all known devices.
+ Use "!" right before the ID to block the probe of the device. For
+ example, "4500,!4571" forces the probe of 4500 and blocks the probe of
