Thanks for testing this driver.

Yes, actually this is related to the device probe order: the
hlcdc-display-controller device is probed before the simple-panel, thus
nothing is detected on the RGB connector (I use of_drm_find_panel to
check for panel availability) when the display controller is
instantiated. I rely on the default polling infrastructure provided by
the DRM/KMS framework which polls for a new connector every 10s, and
this is far more than you kernel boot time.

Do anyone see a solution to reduce this delay (without changing the
polling interval). I thought we could add a notifier infrastructure to
the DRM panel framework, but I'm not sure this is how you want things
done...

Best Regards,

Boris
