Hm, good point. See my comments later on, I'm not sure the "forcing" is
really what we want. I think lastclose would be much better served if it
also checks for master status.

If you agree with the entire "we should _force" then I think the __ prefix
would fit. It's the general "beware, this is special/internal" annotation.
My _locked suggestion was under the assumption that there's never a real
case where we want to do the unprotected modeset for an internal
drm_client.

Uh, I was blind, I thought this was for lastclose. With this one here I
think _force makes sense. I still think that the main drm_client_modeset
interface should be the normal one which checks for master for you.

Hm right, my logic parser went *boink* I think. Looks good on 2nd reading.
