The first version of the series can be found here: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2018-February/166909.html The only change is the dev_err print in drm_panel_attach() if device_link_add() fails. The device_link_del() is still there in drm_panel_detach(), despite Lukas Wunner's comment[1]. In the usual (currently all) cases things would work perfectly without the call too, because device_links_driver_cleanup() will eventually remove all orphaned links. However, this would cause an error in the situation where a drm device would like to detach a panel but remain operational, since the drm device would be unbound for no good reason if the detached panel is later unbound. Anyway, if somebody still comes up with an argument for dropping the device_link_del() from drm_panel_detach(), I'll do it as things will normally work fine either case (drm devices don't normally detach panels and remain operational). These older comment still apply: The first patch could be squashed to second, but kept is separate since I think it is correct even without the second patch. With these patches unbinding a panel driver in use does not cause nasty backtraces and corrupted drm core structures, but instead it cleanly unbind the drm master device at the same time. The only down side (currently[2]) is that the drm device does not reprobe if the panel driver is bound again, but everything should work if the drm master driver is bound manually.
