This is clearly an improvement over the current state and it gets rid of
the warning, so I'm fine with this getting merged.

A nicer solution might be a wrapper around drm_open_helper() that
does not require a file pointer like this (completely untested, probably
wrong) patch would:

If anyone cares more about that than I do, this could be a follow-up patch.
