Hi Daniel,
thank you for the review. I'll work in all your other comments, there's
just one I'm not sure what to do about:

This is modeled after devm_drm_dev_alloc(). Like __devm_drm_dev_alloc(),
__drmm_encoder_alloc() returns a pointer to the allocated container
structure, not a pointer to the embedded struct drm_encoder. I think
this direct cast is correct, unless you suggest that
__drmm_encoder_alloc should return encoder instead of container?
