I tried to reproduce that situation again multiple times, but I could not (even write those bugs back in there, and move the link creation back to panel bridge code). But even from reading the code that difference did not make any sense. I suspect a heisen-bug, after I have read the code and understood that the crash is not possible, it does not happen anymore :). With the current version I could not find any difference in behaviour depending on the order of device_release_driver_internal() and driver_deferred_probe_add() calls. I just thought having them in this order just lookes nicer. I stress tested the code by unloading and loading the panel driver in a tight loop, for several minutes, but it simply wont crash (not in this setup anyway). The probe of tilcdc eventually gracefully fails in a CMA failure.
