Is this code supposed to stay for the long term? As devices are
allocated dynamically, I can imagine that there will be a call that
allocates the memory and, at the same time, sets drm_dev_init_release()
as the release callback.

The question is also released to patch 3, where I proposed to rename
__drm_add_action() to __drmm_kzalloc().

Here's more of a general observation than a comment on the actual patch:

One odd thing about the overall interface is that there's no way of
updating the release callback afterwards. In an OOP language, such as
C++, an error within the constructor would rollback the performed
actions and return without calling the destructor. Destructors only run
for fully constructed objects.

In our case, the equivalent is to run the init function and set
drm_dev_init_release() as the final step. The init's rollback-code would
have to stay, obviously.

Best regards
