What are we going to do about the DRM CVS? Change it to the new way and break everyone running 2.6.10 or earlier, or leave it at the old way that will work for people with distro kernels, and have a divergence between it and what's in the kernel? Also, the compat_ioctl method is called without the BKL held, unlike the ioctl method. What impact will that have? Do we need to take the BKL in the compat_ioctl method?
