Let me continue.

Here's something which is really bad for bugzilla.kernel.org:

People _continue_ to file bug reports for graphics drivers in Linux and
we don't even have proper components for it, only

Video (AGP) - What? AGP has been dead for a decade.
Video (DRI - Non Intel)  - what? Isn't it an X.org's feature, not kernel's?
Video (Other)

This is a complete and total clusterjoy.
FWIW, for Intel graphics (i915) we don't want any bug reports at
bugzilla.kernel.org. We've migrated away more than five years ago. The
"Video (DRI - Intel)" component was closed for new bugs around that
time, the description points at freedesktop.org as does MAINTAINERS:

INTEL DRM DRIVERS (excluding Poulsbo, Moorestown and derivative chipsets)
