Bikeshed: We very much have modern non-KMS drivers (vgem, etnaviv, v3d,
panfrost, ...). non-KMS != legacy, which is what you're talking about
here.

Other thing, and it's a bit raining on your parade: I don't see the point.
Sprinkling a few more #ifdef CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY over the relevant parts
sounds like a reasonable idea. But this is a lot of churn for drivers
which are all pretty much dead, and just waiting for their eventual
removal. And from a compile-testing pov of making sure modern drivers
don't use any of the deprecated stuff wrapping it in CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY
should be plenty enough.

And from a "make stuff const" I think Laurent's much more minimal series
also gets us there for all the drivers we care about.
