Can't find any other use of deprecated functions or legacy code patterns
or anything else that we've recently started cleaning up, looks good. No
detailed review though (for one I lack hw docs).

Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

Might be good to get some cross-review from some other arm soc drm driver
team, then send a pull request to Dave for 4.3.

Cheers, Daniel
