drm: drop obsolete drm_core.h
The drm_core.h header contains a set of constants meant to be used throughout DRM. However, as it turns out, they're each used just once and don't bring any benefit. They're also grossly mis-named and lack name-spacing. This patch inlines them, or moves them into drm_internal.h as appropriate: - CORE_AUTHOR and CORE_DESC are inlined into corresponding MODULE_*() macros. It's just confusing having to follow 2 pointers when trying to find the definition of these fields. Grep'ping for MODULE_AUTHOR() should reveal the full information, if there's no strong reason not to. - CORE_NAME, CORE_DATE, CORE_MAJOR, CORE_MINOR, and CORE_PATCHLEVEL are inlined into the sysfs 'version' attribute. They're stripped everywhere else (which is just some printk() statements). CORE_NAME just doesn't make *any* sense, as we hard-code it in many places, anyway. The other constants are outdated and just serve binary-compatibility purposes. Hence, inline them in 'version' sysfs attribute (we might even try dropping it..). - DRM_IF_MAJOR and DRM_IF_MINOR are moved into drm_internal.h as they're only used by the global ioctl handlers. Furthermore, versioning interfaces breaks backports and as such is deprecated, anyway. We just keep them for historic reasons. I doubt anyone will ever modify them again.
