I suggested adding the subdirectory, but I'm going to bikeshed the name,
which I didn't suggest.

$ find drivers/gpu/drm -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d | wc -l
68

Assuming we move more of the drm modules to subdirectories, how are they
going to stand out from drivers?

I suggested drm_dp, which I understand results in tautology, but hey,
all the filenames under drm/ also have drm_*.[ch]. And I find that very
useful for git greps and other code archeology. With just the dp name,
you'd have to know and list all the drm subdirectories when looking up
stuff that's part of drm but not drivers.

I think we have enough filename prefixes already. drm/drm_dp/drm_dp_ is just ridiculous.

Best regards
