 Part of the reason the new drm framework left no trace in drm(4) is 
 probably that its drivers attach like
 
 FOOdrmkms*     at pci? dev ? function ?
 FOOfb*        at FOOfbbus?
 
 (with *fbbus? appearing out of thin air). So there is no "new drm" bus. 
 Still, drm(4) might hint at the fact.
 
 Cheerio,
