I've been trying to avoid looking at this too closely, partly because
I want ABM enablement by default, with control for users. But the
more I think about this the more uncomfortable I get. The key for my
discomfort is that we're going around the back of DRM master to set
a DRM property. This is apt to create lots of weird behaviors,
especially if compositors also decide to implement support for the
abm_level property and then potentially fight PPD, or other users
of this sysfs.
I'm also not sure a new sysfs is a good candidate for drm-fixes.
