it became clear that we need to separate the unload sequence into two
parts:
1. remove all interfaces through which new operations on some object
(crtc, encoder, connector) can be started and make sure all pending
operations are completed
2. do the actual tear down of the internal representation of the above
objects
The above commit achieved this separation for connectors by splitting
out the sysfs removal part from the connector's destroy callback and
doing this removal before calling drm_mode_config_cleanup() which does
the actual tear-down of all the drm objects.
Since we'll have to customize the interface removal part for different
types of connectors in the upcoming patches, add a new unregister
callback and move the interface removal part to it.
No functional change.

************************************************************
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:
