There are many different cases it can still fail:
- there are no matching device nodes in DT,
- some devices are present in DT, some drivers are enabled,
but they do not match,
- even if there exists some pairs device_node-driver it can fail -
exynos_drm_match_add requires higher level matches - every crtc should
have matching encoder.

I think even super-node will not solve all these issues.

The real problem here is that during probe of exynos_drm ipp driver is
successfully probed and after that exynos_drm probe fails, which causes
also removing ipp, anyway successful ipp probe triggers whole re-probe
mechanism again. It creates infinite loop.

I think moving exynos_platform_device_ipp_register after
component_master_add_with_match should solve some of the issue,
but I guess it could create new ones, or maybe not, needs checking.

On the other side I wonder if we really need to have ipp device at all,
replacing it with helpers of exynos_drm should be possible, I guess.
