There is a question about who is going to use this libdrm API. Are you
going to use it in the VAAPI driver?

Grate drivers can't use this API because:

1. More features are needed
2. There is no stable API
3. It's super painful to keep all drivers and libdrm in sync from a
packaging perspective.

It's much more practical nowadays to use DRM directly, without
SoC-specific libdrm API, i.e. to bundle that SoC-specific API within the
drivers.
