David Herrmann 0d639883ee drm: make minors independent of global lock
We used to protect minor-lookup and setup by the global drm lock. To
continue our attempts of dropping drm_global_mutex, this patch makes the
minor management independent of it. Furthermore, we make it all atomic and
switch to spin-locks instead of a mutex.

Now that minor-lookup is independent, we also move the
"drm_is_unplugged()" test into the minor-lookup path. There is no reason
to ever return a minor for unplugged objects, so keep that logic internal.

The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).

The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:

    1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
       the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.

    2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
       hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
       restricted regions of memory.

    3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
       queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
       switch.

    4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
       that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.


Documentation on the DRI is available from:
    http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
