For the connector drivers we already sit on top of the per-connector
debugfs directories. I think the only reason why we don't do that for
the display controller is because drm_crtc didn't have built-in debugfs
support like the connectors have. It looks like that's no longer true,
though it's been there for a while. I think it'd be good to just move
those over as well.
As for passing struct drm_minor, I think that's mostly unnecessary. As
far as I can tell, we only use drm_minor to get at drm_device, which in
turn we only use to check some features flags, and drm_minor itself is
only used to track the list of files that are being added so that they
can later be removed again. Given that we can just tear down everything
debugfs recursively, I don't think we need any of that.

Yeah. That too.

Exactly my thoughts. It'd be nice to have some sort of macro to help
bring the boilerplate down a bit.

I fully agree with this and all of your points above.

And this. Greg, let me know if you need a hand with the patches or if
you want any of these to be build/runtime tested.
