When a drm driver is initialised we first allocate and initialise the drm minor numbers including creating the sysfs files, then we trigger the driver load method. The act of creating the sysfs files triggers the uevent. This means udev may start programs which open /dev/dri/card0 and other interfaces, this can occur before the load method has even started and thus before the driver has fully initialised its data structures. In the case of plymouthd this leads to it opening and closing (in disgust) the interface, which in turn leads to a kernel panic as the mutexes are yet to be initialised. This patch delays the linking up of the drm devices minor numbers until the driver is fully initialised. As it is possible for consumers of these interfaces to reach them before they are fully initialised we arrange for opens of these devices to return EAGAIN until the device is fully initialised.
