Yeah, that makes some sense. I think you should wire that inside 
drm_ioctl(), as far as I know more or less all uses of a file descriptor 
would go through that function.

And maybe make that a stand alone patch, cause that can go upstream as a 
bug fix independently if you ask me.

Uff, I'm the wrong person to ask stuff like that. I just can say from 
experience because I've ran into that trap as well.

I think you should have the pointer to struct pid directly here since 
that is a reference counted structure IIRC. But don't ask me what the 
semantics is how to get or put a reference.
