drm/i2c: tda998x: mali-dp: hdlcd: refactor connector registration
Connectors shouldn't be registered until the rest of the whole device
is set up, so that consistent state is presented to userspace.
As such, remove the calls to drm_connector_register() and
drm_connector_unregister() from tda998x, as these are now handled by
drm_dev_(un)register() itself.
To work with this change, the mali-dp and hdlcd bind and unbind
sequences have to be reordered, to ensure that the componentised
encoder/connector is bound before drm_dev_register() registers all
connectors. Similarly, the device must be unregistered before the
component is unbound.
Altogether, this allows other drivers using tda998x to be
de-midlayered, and to have less racy initialisation of their components.
Splitting this commit into three (one per driver) isn't possible without
intermediate breakage, so it is all squashed together here.
