[RFC 3/4] drm: Create driver specific root directory inside drmfs

From: Sourab Gupta <sourab.gupta at intel.com>

A driver specific directory is created inside drmfs root, and dentry of
this directory is saved for subsequent use by the driver (e.g. i915).
The driver can then create files/directories inside this root directory
directly.

In case of i915 driver, the top directory is created at '/sys/kernel/drm/i915'.
