[PATCH 2/4] gpu: nova: Add DRM registration data
From: Alistair Popple
Date: Mon Jul 06 2026 - 01:35:10 EST
Currently the nova-drm stub driver doesn't really interact with a real
device, so it doesn't have any registration data and has no way to call
into nova-core.
To allow for this add a DrmRegData type which will hold a reference to
the NovaCoreApi associated with the auxbus device.
