*really*?  That seems even more ugly..

fwiw, I don't expect kgsl to stick around forever.. it is mainly a
temporary convenience for folks with tablets/phones, since drm/msm is
missing some features (mainly dsi panel support).  We don't control
the kgsl kernel interface.  Eventually qcom will break it badly
enough, and drm/msm will have gained enough features, that we decide
kgsl is not worth keeping.
