README.md: Accept the i915_drm.h standalone update.
Looking to our git log we can see that the most common case is the update of the single i915_drm.h file. There are some advantages of doing this standalone update: 1. Make reviews easier without the noise of other headers. 2. Avoid the developer to have to touch other areas that are not immediately related to targeted work.
