Yup. Well the real usefulness is the interfaces, so that you can just grep
for those when trying to figure out htf a driver handles its implicit
dependencies. And amdgpu is unfortunately going to be a bit in the cold
because it's special (but should be able to benefit too, just more than
1-2 patches to convert it over).

Anyway I'm going to type the cover letter rsn.
