I've done some more work on this and here's the current state of things. 
It's a module that loads, checks what state the firmware thinks the 
hardware is in and then ensures that the hardware is actually in that 
state. I believe that it gets the choice between internal and discrete 
GPUs correct. It doesn't support runtime switching right now since 
there's no way to do anything useful with it, but it's a trivial sysfs 
attribute.

I've done this outside sony-laptop since it's not specific to Sonys in 
any way. It would be wonderful if anyone with any of the other hybrid 
nvidias (except the Apples, which seem to be entirely different) could 
give it a go.
