Hi Michael, I fail to follow the logic in this patch.

We rely on the attach operation to save the dmd pointer. In other words - the attach operation must be called before we call dw_mipi_dsi_rockchip_remove(), which uses the dmd member. This all looks wrong to me - are we papering over some other issue here? Sam
