[PATCH umr] Avoid opening the DRM file by default

2017-04-27 Thread Tom St Denis
Opening the DRM file (/dev/dri/card%d) triggers all sorts of KMD work to happen which is not useful if the KMD is hung or not working. Since --top is the only user of the file currently we simply defer opening it until --top is invoked. Signed-off-by: Tom St Denis ---
