Yeah, I was never crazy about that either.  To make the change you
want, we would need Dongsheng's other patch that moves all hardware
init into the _probe function first.  And then we would need to get
rid of the #ifdefs for 5121.  I'm all for that, but at the time this
code was written, no one expected Freescale to continue using the DIU
after the P1022.
