To which we could even add a kmemleak check.
After rmmod drm and before reloading i915:
echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak > `hostname`-leaks.txt

If the output is not empty, file a bug. [Of course this means having to
compile kmemleak into the kernel. The DEBUG_KMEMLEAK option is found under
Kernel Hacking.] And since each generation has slightly different
initialization stanzas, we need to repeat the test on all platforms.
