+KMS cleanups
+------------
+
+Some of these date from the very introduction of KMS in 2008 ...
+
+- drm_mode_config.crtc_idr is misnamed, since it contains all KMS object. Should
+ be renamed to drm_mode_config.object_idr.
+
+- drm_display_mode doesn't need to be derived from drm_mode_object. That's
+ leftovers from older (never merged into upstream) KMS designs where modes
+ where set using their ID, including support to add/remove modes.
+
Better Testing
