For the record - I have no clue what legacy code uses the DRM hash-table
for.

Would it be possible to use the Linux hash-table now rather than this
mid-step where a lot of code is added to wmgfx only to be removed
later?
If we go for this way then a todo item to fix this in wmgfx so someone
can fix this later would be nice.
