drm/i915: Register debugfs interface last
Currently debugfs files are created before the driver is even loads. This gives the opportunity for userspace to open that interface and poke around before the backing data structures are initialised - with the possibility of oopsing or worse. Move the creation of the debugfs files to our registration phase, where we announce our presence to the world when we are ready, i.e the sequence changes from drm_dev_register() -> drm_minor_register() -> drm_debugfs_init() -> i915_debugfs_init() -> i915_driver_load() to drm_dev_register() -> drm_minor_register() -> drm_debugfs_init() -> i915_driver_load() -> i915_debugfs_register() Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1466773227-7994-5-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk
