Hm right pure drmm_ doesn't work for panel or bridge since it's
usually a separate driver. But devm_ also doesn't work. I think what
we need here is two-stage: first kmalloc the panel (or bridge, it's
really the same) in the panel/bridge driver load. Then when we bind it
to the drm_device we can tie it into the managed resources with
drmm_add_action_or_reset. Passing the drm_device to the point where we
allocate the panel/bridge doesn't work for these.
I think minimally we need a FIXME here and ack from Laurent on how
this should be solved at least, since panel bridge is used rather
widely.
