Better option is to add support for platform devices. Can we get
anyone interested in that ?
If we drop (the annoying) printf people will just ignore/forget about
it, and things will fall through the cracks - similar to the 5+ pokes
(at various people) to add support.

On the cool side - it will allow you to use the DRI_PRIME/driconf's
device_id=libudev_path_id_tag to manage the devices on your system.
