We need lastclose for the fbdev emulation. Which is already fixed through
the new drm_client stuff and the new generic fbdev. It's a matter of
rolling that out. The other use is for delayed vgaswitcheroo changes,
which I think is a bit a hack ... Since I don't have a solution for that I
guess lasclose will stay with us for a while longer.
