It's also a matter of being consistent: pretty much everyone else is
doing it:
* vc4 (RaspberryPi)
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_hdmi.c#L1437
* omap
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm/dss/hdmi4.c#L620
* sti
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.5.1/source/drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_hdmi.c#L1310
* msm
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.5.1/source/drivers/gpu/drm/msm/hdmi/hdmi.c#L597
etc...
If we were to think about this at a more theorical level though, it's
pretty much the same case than having a sound card but no headphone
attached, or having a display engine but no display attached. In both
case, you register the driver before having a sink, you just let the
userspace know that there's nothing connected on the other end.
