Wrt the infoframe series, I think it'd be awesome if you could convert
i915 and radeon (iirc the existing drivers with the "best" avi
infoframe support) over to the new code. This gives some nice
validation, both by testing on actual hw and that the interface is
sane, since it'll be used by 2-3 different drivers then.

I think the best way is to pick the infoframe implementation you best
like from one of these, move it into the helper, then improve it until
you're happy. And then convert over 1-2 other drivers. At least that's
been my approach for the recent dp helper refactoring.

Cheers, Daniel
