Happens on driver removal.  Seen with both qxl and bochs (the later
using vram helpers).

Testcase: "drmtest --unbind" (https://git.kraxel.org/cgit/drminfo/).

static int try_unbind(int card)
{
    char path[256];
    char *device, *name;
    int fd;

    snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "/sys/class/drm/card%d/device", card);
    device = realpath(path, NULL);
    if (device == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "%s: can't resolve sysfs device path\n", __func__);
        return -1;
    }

    snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "%s/driver/unbind", device);
    fd = open(path, O_WRONLY);
    if (fd < 0) {
        fprintf(stderr, "open %s: %s\n", path, strerror(errno));
        return -1;
    }

    name = strrchr(device, '/') + 1;
    write(fd, name, strlen(name));
    close(fd);
    return 0;
}

take care,
