Something is very fishy then. The behaviour of drm_new_master() would
appear to be to create a drm_master owned by the device, but really it is
owned by file_priv?

* checks back on drm_master

So drm_master is the authentication structure that needs to be unique to
a hierachy. So drm_new_set_master() and here really do appear backwards.

The old drm_new_set_master() makes more sense, it assigns to the
file_priv, and then performs a setmaster operation. In that ordering,
you could even do the file_priv local operation of creating the new
master structure before taking the lock to perform setmaster.

drm_master_put() nullifies, didn't expect that.
