The function drm_simple_encoder_init() is a trivial helper and
deprecated. Replace it with the regular call to drm_encoder_init().
Resolves the dependency on drm_simple_kms_helper.h. No functional
changes.

What about using drmm_encoder_init() instead? It will call
drm_encoder_cleanup automatically.
IIRC the original use case for the drmm_encoder_*() funcs was to solve
problems with the clean-up order if the encoder was added dynamically. The
hardware for ast is entirely static and ast uses drmm_mode_config_init() for
auto-cleaning up the modesetting pipeline. Using drmm_encoder_init() seems
like a bit of wasted resources for no gain.
I'd say it's qui pro quo. We are wasting resources on drmm handling, but
then keep it by dropping all drm_encoder_funcs instances.
With drm_encoder_init() there's a static-const declared struct in RO
memory. With drmm_encoder_init(), there's a kalloc for the managed
callback data. It's RW memory and the alloc can fail. Therefore I prefer
drm_encoder_init() in this case.
Best regards
Thomas
