Fair enough. Honestly it just didn't occur to me.

The main goal here was to ensure the drm subsystem does not have any
build warnings, but without halting CI on any non-drm warnings that
might occasionally creep in and that we can't fix as quickly.

If there was a way to somehow limit WERROR by subdirectories, without
config options, I'd love to ditch the config.

For i915, this was the idea anyway, we just haven't gotten around to it
yet.
