As pointed out by Daniel Vetter, we should be usinng
drm_drv_uses_atomic_modeset() for determining whether or not we want to
make the debugfs nodes for atomic instead of checking DRIVER_ATOMIC, as
the former isn't an accurate representation of whether or not the driver
is actually using atomic modesetting internally (even though it might
not be exposing atomic capabilities).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
