    drm: add minor-lookup/release helpers · 1616c525
    David Herrmann authored
    Instead of accessing drm_minors_idr directly, this adds a small helper to
    hide the internals. This will help us later to remove the drm_global_mutex
    requirement for minor-lookup.
    
    Furthermore, this also makes sure that minor->dev is always valid and
    takes a reference-count to the device as long as the minor is used in an
    open-file. This way, "struct file*"->private_data->dev is guaranteed to be
    valid (which it has to, as we cannot reset it).
