btw my rough idea for lastclose is that we're just going to make it racy,
and then use the master lock and drm_client infrastructure to handle
fights between fbcon and a restarted compositor. That's already how that's
handled everywhere else. We might need to cut over drivers to the generic
fbcon stuff (or at least steal parts of the drm_client stuff I think), but
not sure.
