And here's one that actually checks the return values from
drm_copy_field.  This is separate from the pure cleanup patch(es)
as it changes behavior that userspace
sees, so it can be bisected and reverted apart from the others if

In drm_version, actually check the results from function calls so that
we're not potentially passing garbage back to userspace.
