Looking to our git log we can see that the most common case
is the update of the single i915_drm.h file.
There are some advantages of doing this standalone update:
1. Make reviews easier without the noise of other headers.
2. Avoid the developer to have to touch other areas that are
not immediately related to targeted work.
