Given the over-the-top complicated mode encoding you seem to have, this
feels like it's a bit too simply.

So this calls a different module which export_symbol_gpls that thing. I
have no idea why arm-soc people love modularized-to-the-function level
drivers, but it feels over the top. amd/nouveau/i915 all smash everything
into one driver, makes life so much easier.

Note: bridge drivers as separate .ko makes sense, but separate .ko for
every single functional unit in your vendor IP imo totally doesn't.

Not going to stop you either :-)
