If drm_universal_plane_init() fails early we jump to the common cleanup code
that calls komeda_plane_destroy() which in turn could access the uninitalised
drm_plane and crash. Return early if an error is detected without going through
the common code.

Ummm... can I disagree here? this goto cleanup I think is just fine
because plane has been set before drm_universal_plane_init() is called
which is before the if (err) here. komeda_plane_destroy() in cleanup:
does all the right things, so this patch isn't needed. I think it's less
clean as it adds a new "handle error" path special-case instance where a
special case is not needed. The fix to Zhou's original patch was needed
for exactly the reason Liviu said - but not this one... ?
