if (!minor)
        return -EINVAL;

(I don't insist on that one, but see below)

Wrong index, right? This would use '0' rather than '64'. Probably does
not matter, though.

if (!minor)
        return;

I mean, our error-paths often coalesce multiple similar destructor
calls, and expect the destructor calls. So no reason to assume the
primary-node is initialized. In fact, our drm_dev_register() creates
the primary node last, so if the render-node creation fails we will
call here and NULL-deref.

Otherwise looks good to me.

Thanks
