Anything else confuses the casual reader. Perhaps the real question is whether the structures should have "helper" in their name in the first place?Those structures are meant for functions used by the helpers, they are not helper functions.That might be how they started, but to me it looks like all these helpers are no longer helpers, but part of the core...
They are in library modules. You can write a DRM driver without _helper_funcs, see i915. It's just a really hard sell to upstream nowadays.
