The intention was to prevent people from thinking that they
should invent their own set of helper functions. As these
are only pointers we could also add a

struct drm_crtc_helper_funcs;
struct drm_connector_helper_funcs;
struct drm_encoder_helper_funcs;

to drm_crtc.h without having to include the helper includes.
