tbh this is only a half-useful attempt at untangling the header loop mess.
Once drm_crtc.[hc] is fully split I guess we can look into what makes
sense. I'll definitely be happy to review patches, but personally I don't
mind loops in headers much. It's annoying, but as long as things are
reasonably split and it's possible to untangle at least the
code/structures and documentation itself I'm happy.

Wrt all things drm_device: I'm not sure when (if ever) I'll cough up the
courage to split up and untangle drmP.h ;-)

drm_crtc_helper_internal.h, drm_crtc_internal.h and drm_internal.h, all in
drivers/gpu/drm/
