Ideally we would be able to do something like `pub use bindings::drm::mode::*`, but
I don’t immediately see a way to make it happen.
OTOH, I do not see these constants being used anywhere?

At least the inputs must be valid. Speaking of which, are there any restrictions on `type_` ?

Hopefully nothing else from here on moves the contents of the Box as well.
