All bus drivers do device setup themselves. This requires us to adjust all
of them if we introduce new core features. Thus, merge all these into a
uniform drm_dev_register() helper.
Note that this removes the drm_lastclose() error path for AGP as it is
horribly broken. Moreover, no bus driver called this in any other error
path either. Instead, we use the recently introduced AGP cleanup helpers.
We also keep a DRIVER_MODESET condition around pci_set_drvdata() to keep
semantics.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
