Hi James !

Why did you move the driver includes to include/video ? What is 
the reasoning here ?

For example, drivers/video/radeon.h moved to include/video/radeon.h

Is this to be able to share register definitions with the DRM drivers ?
(I doubt this will ever happen as the DRM is rather self contained)

I would have preferred those includes to stay next to their respective
drivers (though renaming radeon.h to radeonfb.h might have made some
sense).

Regards,
Ben.
