They do? I thought the monitor, chipset and ramdac driver
contained separate check_mode functions that doesn't
know anything about each other, or am I wrong here?

But the real reason not to put this into KGI drivers are that
it's not neccesary. Why put something in the kernel if it
doesn't need to be there for security or performance reasons?
