I'm surprised to hear that there might be problems. All HDLCD files start
with hdlcd_ and the rest will go to the Mali-DP DRM maintainers (which includes
me as well).

I understand your suggestion and I thank for it, but I really hate to have
to navigate too many directories (for now). Lets see how things evolve and then
we can move stuff around.

Best regards,
Liviu
