This is an ioctl handler, so there's not really any caller we can move
this to. In general I'm split, and I just put checks like these wherever
it makes sense, pulling them out into callers if there's an entire pile of
them who all want the same checks.

In the end I don't think it matters, as long as we dutifully combine
drm_legacy_* with such checks, so that it's _really_ all dead code for
modern drives.
