Changes in v2:
- use the component framework to defer main drm driver probe
   until all VOP devices have been probed.
- use dma-mapping API with ARM_DMA_USE_IOMMU, create dma mapping by
   master device and each vop device can shared the drm dma mapping.
- use drm_crtc_init_with_planes and drm_universal_plane_init.
- remove unnecessary middle layers.
- add cursor set, move funcs to rockchip drm crtc.
- use vop reset at first init
- reference framebuffer when used and unreference when swap out vop

Changes in v3:
- change "crtc->fb" to "crtc->primary-fb"
Adviced by Daniel Vetter
- init cursor plane with universal api, remove unnecessary cursor set,move

Changes in v4:
Adviced by David Herrmann
- remove drm_platform_*() usage, use register drm device directly.
Minor fixup for that part below.

[snip]

+static int rockchip_drm_bind(struct device *dev)
+{
+	struct drm_device *drm;
+	int ret;
+
+	drm = drm_dev_alloc(&rockchip_drm_driver, dev);

Please call rockchip_drm_load here directly and don't put it as the ->load
function into the driver vtable. The point of the alloc/register split is
that the driver can be completely set up _before_ we register anything.
But for backwards compat and historical reasons ->load is called somewhere
in the middle (so that you could access the minor nodes if needed, since
some drivers do that).
I tried to do the same in the atmel-hlcdc DRM driver, but I need the
primary drm_minor to register the connectors (see this kernel
backtrace [1]), which means I either initialize the connector in the
wrong place (currently part of the drm load process), or I just can't
call atmel_hlcdc_dc_load before registering the drm device...
Hm right, wonder who that works with rockchip tbh.

We did split up the drm_connector setup into _init and register, so if you
want to do this then you need to move the call to drm_connector_register
below the call to drm_dev_register.

We should probably have a drm_connectors_register_all helper which does
this for all connectors on the connector list. And also grabs the
appropriate lock.

I guess it's somewhat obvious that no one yet actually tried this ;-)

right, I re-test the driver with it, get the same problem with Boris.
I should move drm_connector_register below the drm_dev_register.
