Your s-o-b should be the bottom of the list. There was a presentation
(ages ago) from Greg KH, who nicely described the order as a "chain of
command" or "guilt path". Looks like the rest of the series could use
this tweak.

I could swear that we can a patch that sorts these alphabetically,
although it doesn't seem to have made it upstream yet :-(

The use of .load (and .unload?) callbacks is not recommended. Take a
look at Laurent Pinchart's patch [1] about the whys and hows on the
topic

Erm... something feels fishy here. Out of the existing 15 drivers
setting up the prime callbacks only one (sti) does a similar thing. So
either everyone else is missing something obvious or hisilicon and sti
can rework their inner working to remove this (dare I say it) hack.

I'm not sure you want this kind of dependency of an out of tree driver
upstream. If this is some limitation on the display engine so be it,
but tailoring things for an external module seems like a very bad
idea.

As pointed out by the the kernel doc - drm_platform_init is deprecated.
