So if we survey kms drivers there's a bunch of things they commonly do in ->lastclose - delayed processing of vga switcheroo requests (i915, nouveau, radeon) - force-restoring the fbcon (most) - resetting a bunch properties to make fbcon work better (omap) - disabling all outputs (vmwgfx) In short besides the semantically important vga switcheroo stuff they all try very hard to keep fbcon working in case X dies. But none of them try to not do this at driver unload time safe for vmwgfx, and digging through logs I couldn't find any reason for why vmwgfx is special. Since ->firstopen has lots of potential for abuse with kms drivers (like delaying driver setup to pamper over races in the load sequence) it's imo very much worth it to remove this logic so that we can stop using the ->firstopen callback for kms drivers. Also module unloading is rather a debug feature and developers should know how to restore the display to a sane configuration.

************************************************************
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
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=387
http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/
