The idea of drmm_ is that you use them all. That the managed version of
drm_mode_config_init also happens to still work with the unmanaged
encoder/connector/crtc/plane cleanup is just to facilitate gradual
conversions.

And see my other reply, for drmm_encoder_init supporting the NULL funcs
case actually makes full sense.

Also, any driver can be hotunbound through sysfs, no hotunplug of the hw
needed at all.
