Actually, this was done at the wrong place. The first argument to
drmOpen() call is a red herring. It's supposed to load a kernel module,
but unless the module is already loaded this code is never reached
because drmCheckModesettingSupported() failure is treated as an
abort condition.

Please use this patch instead. This makes it load the module when
drmCheckModesettingSupported() fails, and then try the check again.

This is inspired by similar approach in intel driver (see
src/intel_device.c).

I'll submit it upstream as well.
