Step one to this seems to be to increase the > awareness that there's something wrong with DRM. Note that I suspect your idea of "fixing drm" is going to break some userspace assumptions about the hw (ie. userspace isn't expecting crtcs/encoders/connectors to suddenly appear/disappear. And the funny thing is, on all of this hw, that isn't going to happen anyways. In whatever is done, we need some way to know all the devices in hw that comprise the "graphics card", so that we can -EPROBE_DEFER until we have all the bits and pieces.
