Yeah looking at this again, do we really need this patch? Couldn't we
instead change patch 1 to first allocate the fake platform device, then
pass that to drm_dev_alloc (instead of NULL like we do now)?

That way no resurrection of drm_device.platform_dev is needed (and I'd
really like this zombie to stay dead on 2nd thought).

Sry about this yet-another-round review :-/
