drm/exynos: move Exynos platform drivers registration to init
Registering the Exynos DRM subdevices platform drivers in the probe
function is causing an infinite loop. Fix this by moving it to the
exynos_drm_init() function to register the drivers on module init.
Registering drivers in the probe functions causes a deadlock in the parent
device lock. See Grant Likely explanation on the topic:
"I think the problem is that exynos_drm_init() is registering a normal
(non-OF) platform device, so the parent will be /sys/devices/platform.
It immediately gets bound against exynos_drm_platform_driver which
calls the exynos drm_platform_probe() hook. The driver core obtains
device_lock() on the device *and on the device parent*.
Inside the probe hook, additional platform_drivers get registered.
Each time one does, it tries to bind against every platform device in
the system, which includes the ones created by OF. When it attempts to
bind, it obtains device_lock() on the device *and on the device
parent*.
Before the change to move of-generated platform devices into
/sys/devices/platform, the devices had different parents. Now both
devices have /sys/devices/platform as the parent, so yes they are
going to deadlock.
The real problem is registering drivers from within a probe hook. That
is completely wrong for the above deadlock reason. __driver_attach()
will deadlock. Those registrations must be pulled out of .probe().
Registering devices in .probe() is okay because __device_attach()
doesn't try to obtain device_lock() on the parent."
