I haven't read through your patches yet, but Dave and Ilija already
did something similar a while back:

Actually, there is a, a newer series of patches here (applied few comments
I got after first series)
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2012-April/021326.html
I have the v3 series (applied more comments I got after v2 series, plus
some more cleanup) that I have never sent out, because my perception was
that there was low interest in this work. I can send the v3 out, if there
is a revived interest in this work.
The original work is by Dave and I did some major cleanup and built more
on the top of it.
Kristian's patches at the first glance (I have not looked them in detail)
appear more like prep. work (like which ioctl can a render node use and
which can't, etc.), but my impression is that they still require the work
cited above (Dave's original work and/or my followup work) to actually be
able to create and use the render node.
BTW, the third patch in Kristian's series is for Intel only and we'll
probably need equivalent patches for radeon and nouveau.
