Yeah, but if we can get more people working on the job..

Please do as I would have to dig around to do it right as I have
fogotten most of the drm internals the last couple of months.

Just something simple like: "This is deprecated, do not use!" would do
the trick for me. Then I would know what to look for if I was reviewing
a new bridge driver or patching an existing one or just trying to gentle
push someone in the right direction.

For drm_drv.h this really helped me to understand what should not be
used.
