[PATCH v2 00/15] drm/drm_simple: remove drm_simple_encoder_init

[Diogo Silva]

The simple KMS helpers are deprecated because they only add an
intermediate layer between drivers and atomic modesetting.

This series open-codes all remaining drm_simple_encoder_init() users by
calling drm_encoder_init() directly and providing driver-local
drm_encoder_funcs where needed. After the driver conversions, the helper
is removed and the completed DRM todo item is dropped.
