The drm_fourcc.h maybe makes some sense (I think in some places mesa
uses these internally, and many drivers use the modifiers directly in
the main driver). But the amdgpu header should be all ioctl stuff,
which should be all entirely in the winsys only.

Also kinda disappointing that drm_fourcc.h includes drm.h and isn't
standalone, but I guess that sailed (at least for linux).
