Yeah.
I'm also really not a big fan of throwing everything into
i915_display_info. The general idea of debugfs is to have individual
files for individual things, not to have one massive thing that includes
everything, in a loop across crtcs and connectors.
I get that one file is a convenience, but at some point we have to say
too much is just too much. I think so far we've just added everything
indiscriminately.
I think it's a bit wild that we don't even have per crtc debugfs file
for intel_crtc_info, or per connector file for intel_connector_info, or
most of the individual parts in them.
Anyway, it's a bit difficult to claim this is the straw that breaks the
camel's back, but I think at some point this whole thing needs an
overhaul.

Jani.
