so, I don't really think we should have a "headless" dt node, because
that doesn't really represent the hw.  Maybe instead for the gpu
device node, we could use a different compatible string like:

   gpu at xyz {
      compatible = "amd,imageon-205.0", "amd,imageon";
      ...
   };

(ie. amd,imageon instead of qcom,adreno)

Then in adreno_bind() (or somewhere around there), if we have the
amd,imageon compat string instead of qcom,adreno, then programatically
create a dummy "headless" device that the toplevel drm driver can bind
to.  I think something like this should be possible, and avoid needing
a qcom,adreno-headless node in dt.
