Description
Fedora Rawhide that targets Fedora 12 uses kernel with DRM page flip patch, that assumes the flip list to be initialized upon drm_release, which is not the case unless vblank is initialized explicitely.
(just in case it's also needed for tiny changes like this: I release it under MIT license)

Patch applied, thanks. Just to mention it again, it is really nice when distributors draw our attention to downstream changes that make sense to apply upstream.

This is the thread with that patch:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dri-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg39857.html
To me it seems that it is a bug in that patch and will follow up on it, though all drivers do call drm_vblank_init() in .load (only vboxvideo did not, and radeon seems to have an error path in .load that is able skip it).
