I like the unplugged state to handle whole-device removal, but I think
this needs a few extensions:
- I think we should unconditionally unregister the drm dev minors. Simply
  checking dev->unplugged should do the trick because we can't just tear
  down the minor structs (we can only unregister the dev node).
- writing to dev->unplugged needs to be protected by the same mutex (i.e.
  drm_global_mutex) as the actual unregister step.
- I think we should add a simply drm_device_is_unplugged so that drivers
  can check the unplugged state in a race-free manner. Adding an smp_wmb()
  after writing to dev->unplugged and an smb_rmb() before reading it in
  that helper (plus ensuring that dev->unplugged is a separate word in
  drm_device) should do the trick without overhead.
- I think we wan't the drm core to return -ENODEV for any ioctls an open
  calls and return a SIGBUS on the fault handler. Currently you roll that
  yourself in udl, but I can't think of a use-case where we want to stick
  the interfaces around after a hotremove of the entire device.

Cheers, Daniel
