bleh, but on latest upstream (plus drm-next, etc).. possibly just not
caught earlier due to insufficient debug stuff enabled..

I could probably solve this by moving drm_kms_helper_poll_init()
earlier.. otoh that might cause other surprises and other drivers also
seem to do this late in their load..
