The update is horribly racy since it doesn't protect at all against
concurrent closing of the master fd. And it can't really since that
requires us to grab a mutex.
Instead of jumping through hoops and offloading this to a worker
thread just block this bit of code for the modesetting driver.

We should also not be calling update_dri1_breadcrumb unless we have a
USER_INTERRUPT. The other updates to the breadcrumb hws index do not
appear to be serialised by anything other than polling.
Well, this is what's been there before and I don't really want to touch
dri1/ums code at all. So I think we'll just keep this here until we'll all
put it on the big pyre ;-)
Chris and I discusssed the commit message a bit on irc and now the hack
also spurts a code comment. Merged to -fixes for now, but I'd still like
to get a tested by from Eugene before sending off the pull request.

Built 3.10.23 with the fix, tested today. The problem has not shown up
so far.
