The 'unique' value ought to be fine, there is code in
arm/sunxi/sunxi_drm.c to create it, but it never gets called.

It does, and creation of the unique value should be done lazily from
the DRM_IOCTL_SET_VERSION ioctl. This ioctl fails as the is_master
member of the file struct for the drm device isn't set. Not got any
further in tracking down why.
