I found a new problem, after moving vgaarb.c to drivers/pci,
misc_register() in vga_arb_device_init() fails with -ENODEV, the root
cause is still initcall order. Both vga_arb_device_init() and
misc_init() are subsys_initcall(), and drivers/Makefile looks like
this:
obj-y                           += pci/
......
obj-y                           += char/
......
obj-y                           += gpu/

So vga_arb_device_init() in the pci directory runs before misc_init()
in the char directory, and misc_register() fails.

There are two methods to resolve: 1, keep vgaarb.c in drivers/gpu; 2,
make vga_arb_device_init() to be subsys_initcall_sync(). I prefer the
first one, but it seems you don't like both of them.
