Ok pushed that now to drm-misc-next. I'm also working on getting the
remaining bits of the basic drm managed conversion resubmitted. That was
unfortunately massively sidelined for the dma-fence discussions.

Quick heads-up:
drmm_add_final_kfree and drm_dev_init will both disappear, please use
devm_drm_dev_alloc.

Cheers, Daniel
