Thanks!
Are you planning to send those for 4.5 or are they going to be patches for 4.4?

Because I plan to add the Mali DP driver to the same directory. The HDLCD
files are prefixed with the hdlcd_ string, so it should be fairly simple
to distinguish the relevant files.

There was a PL111 DRM driver submitted at some moment, it doesn't look
like it has been merged, but the plan was to have it inside the arm
directory as well. I am following the amd/amdgpu|radeon idea of having
a vendor directory in display/gpu/drm and then subdirectories (if it
makes sense) or appropriately named files in there.

It might turn out that way, but at the moment I'm not seeing too many
downsides.
