Rebinding drivers should be fixed now, with a bunch of fixes in driver
core. If not, we need to fix this more.

Also, EPROBE_DEFER is how this is supposed to work. If it's too slow,
we need to fix EPROBE_DEFER (there's ideas for pre-sorting that never
seem to go anywhere), not paper over it with bad architecture in
drivers.

There's also a bit the issue that most userspace handles panels in a
special way, and if they don't find the panel at first, that doesn't
work. Stuff like "which is the main screen" on laptops.

So yeah please fix this properly.
