It's... hairy.
Looks like in this case the destroy hook gets called via
drm_connector_free_work_fn() and __drm_connector_put_safe() the
documentation of which says, "Should only be used from the
connector_iter functions, where we never really expect to actually
release the connector when dropping our final reference."
Can and does happen anyway it seems. :/
