v1: Remove the general drm_device_is_unplugged() checks, and move the unplugged
flag handling logic into drm/udl. In general we want to keep driver-specific
logic out of common drm code.

v2: Based on discussion with Stephane and David, drop most of the unplugged
flag handling logic in drm/udl except for udl_detect() and udl_fb_open().
The intention is to treat the device removal as a connector-unplug, and kep
the UDL device fully functional.

v3: Based on feedback from David, entirely drop the "unplugged" flag and all
related code. There is no need to check for the unplugged flag as the existing
udl_usb_disconnect() behavior already ensures the controller is removed, and
all code paths that uses the usb-device are not reachable after unplug.

When a UDL monitor is unplugged, we need to still treat it as a fully
functional device which just happens to have its connector unplugged.
This allows user-space to properly deallocate fbs and dumb buffers
before closing the device.

This drops the "unplugged" flag hack, which puts the device in a
non-functional state after USB unplug and rejects most operations on
the device such as ioctls with error -ENODEV.

David - is the v3 patch acceptable to you? Thanks.

Who frees the udl device now? What code-path is responsible to call
drm_dev_unregister() for udl devices? This hunk looks bogus to me.
Please elaborate.

Who marks a connector as "disconnect" once the device is removed?

Did you actually test this patch? How is it supposed to work? Please
explain _exactly_ in your commit message what the new semantics are. I
highly doubt that this patch does what you want. Also, please run
kmemleak on your tests to verify that all memory is actually released.

Generally, I like the approach. However, I think you still need a
state that marks a device as dropped. I'd do something like this:

1) In udl_usb_disconnect(), set udl->udev to NULL, locked by
mode_config.mutex. This should be the _first_ thing you do there. This
serves as barrier against ->get_modes(), which is the only path that
uses "udl->udev".

2) In udl_detect(), return 'connector_status_disconnected' if
"udl->udev" is NULL.

3) In udl_get_edid() add "if (WARN_ON(!udl->udev)) return NULL;"

4) Hook into f_ops.release() and call into drm_release(). But
afterwards you have to call drm_put_dev() if open_count is 0 now.

Thanks
David
