Maybe add "Drivers which don't want to allocate their own device structure
embedding &drm_device can instead just call drm_dev_alloc()."

for "goto err_minors" you need to set ret first, otherwise we'll fail and
return 0. Wasn't a problem because of the unconditional return NULL here.

Maybe we can also add "Drivers which want to subclass/embed struct
&drm_device should instead look at drm_dev_init()."

With the one bug in the error handling fixed, and the kerneldoc augmented:
