If individual USB drivers need access to this type of thing, shouldn't
that be done in the USB core itself?
{hint, yes}
There shouldn't be anything "special" about a DRM driver that needs this
vs. any other driver that might want to know about DMA things related to
a specific USB device. Why isn't this an issue with the existing
storage or v4l USB devices?
