I'm confused regarding drm-uapi.rst's role. Is it a document for kernel driver
writers to expand the uAPI, or is it a document for userspace?

It's currently filled with references to internal kernel symbols
(drm_master_get, drm_ioctl_desc, drm_ioctl_permit and so on). Some chapters seem
dedicated to kernel devs (e.g. "Testing and validation").

Is it really the right place for userspace devs to learn how to use KMS?
