BTW: review is based just on the change itself, the possible side effects of this change are still to be seen (if there are any at all).

usr/src/uts/intel/io/vgatext/vgatext.c (Diff revision 1)

One interesting thing to note here is that this driver is ONLY calling ddi_create_minor_node for the "text-n" device. Nothing appears to ever make minor nodes for the (odd) "agpmaster" minors, which would appear to confirm that theory that agpmaster pass-through here was dead code.
