Hi Daniel,

Thank you for the patch.

I'd split this patch in two then, with the Xen first coming first, and
with an explanation in the commit message of the second patch about why
you call drmm_add_final_kfree() in drm_dev_alloc().

drmm_add_final_kfree() can only be called once. Does this mean that a
driver using drm_dev_alloc() isn't allowed to use drmm_add_final_kfree()
to tract its own private structure ?
