You could combine this patch with the previous one so that in the event of a cherry-pick its not possible to have this function while the core inserts the driver name automatically.

I think that also makes it very clear that there are no remaining in-tree drivers still calling the function.

I don't have a strong preference if we prefer it being separated.

Thanks,
Jake
