It was copied from drm_open. I tried to not do any changes that
weren't mandatory to make it work, to minimize the chance of me
breaking things.
I guess I can do what you suggested. From the drm code, doesn't seem
moving it will cause any harm.

We do use a new, dedicated major number. But one of the main points
that was agreed was we should leverage the drm code.
And from how I look at things, the best way to do that was to decide
that the accel device is just a new drm minor type.
This way, accel code will seamlessly integrate into the current drm core code.

Again, I preferred to change as little as possible existing code in
drm, to make sure I don't do any regressions in this basic patch-set.
I really want to keep drm changes to an absolute minimum and any such
change should come in a separate patch.
