Hi Kevin/tang.
Thanks for the quick and detailed feedback.

OK, fine.

Yes, use of DRM_XXX is deprecated - when you have a drm_device.

I think you just need to move this to next patch and then it is fine.
Here is the advice given by Thomas Zimmermann, similar to the advice you gave.
I have given thomas feedback about my questions, maybe thomas didn't see my email, so there is no reply.
But I've always been confused, because irq is initialized
in drm driver for other guys, why not for me?
Can you help to tell the reason in detail, looking forward to your answers.
Thomas's suggestion：
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
sub-device code, but the device state is set here. Instead both should
be set in the same place.

Most of this function's code should be moved into the sub-device bind
function.
Here, maybe do:
* allocate device structures
* call component_bind_all()
* on success, register device
The sub-device function should then do
* init modesetting, crtc, planes, etc.
* do drm_mode_config_reset()
* init vblanking
* init the irq
* do drm_kms_helper_poll_init()
roughtly in that order. It makes sense to call drm_vblank_init() after
drm_mode_config_reset(), as vblanking uses some of the mode-config fields.
