So I'm not sure how happy I am about this. It seems to work, but on
the very first boot I get this:
------------[ cut here ]------------

apparently Introduced by commit 355a70183848 ("drm/gem: Warn on
illegal use of the dumb buffer interface v2")
The commit says "the next step is to fail".
And I want to make it painfully clear that if somebody breaks existing
working setups, they don't get to work on the kernel.
So get rid of the warning. And get rid of the notion that you can just
fail. You can try to fix Xorg, and then come back to this - in a
couple of years - when it no longer happens.
