Add device_link from panel device (supplier) to drm device (consumer)
with DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE when drm_panel_attach() is called. Currently
the master drm driver is not protected against the attached. The
device_link with DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE should make sure the drm device is
unbound before the panel driver becomes unavailable.

The device_link is removed when drm_panel_detach() is called. The
drm_panel_detach() should be called by the panel driver it self when
it is removed. Otherwise the both driver are racing to delete the same
link.

I think this paragraph wants to be:

The device_link is removed when drm_panel_detach() is called. The
drm_panel_detach() should be called by the consumer DRM driver, not the
panel driver, otherwise both drivers are racing to delete the same link.

Other than that, these patches are:

too)

AFAICS drm_panel_detach() is always called by the DRM drivers, so it's
confusing that you're saying here it should be called by the panel
drivers.  That would also seem to be asymmetric since drm_panel_attach()
is called by the DRM drivers.

If you ditch the device_link_del() and use DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE only,
you don't need to save the pointer to struct device_link.

Thanks,

Thanks second paragraph was indeed completely wrong. And the first -
especially the second sentence - does not make too much sense either,
but it anyway need rephrasing if I drop DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE.
