Right you are.

I haven't seen much use of it, myself. It's also only really useful
for wl_drm; I'd prefer to push zwp_linux_dmabuf instead. It also
relies on a more perfect proxying of wl_drm than we necessarily
actually implement.

The one thing it provides over and above wl_dmabuf is device
advertisement, to guide the implementation towards a particular GPU.
So maybe it makes sense to keep it just for that, purely for render
nodes.

Also VA-API still uses wl_drm, so we need to wean that away from it first.

Yep!
