plug/unplug has for me a different meaning wrt connectors. And because of
the MST problem I'd just leave this along really.

MST can hot-add connectors, and we can do that as soon as we process
hotplug events. Which is generally towards the end of the init sequence,
but decidedly before drm_dev_register().

So a function which walks all connectors (even when holding relevant
locks) could try to double-register a connector added through MST hotplug,
leading to slight unpleasantries.

But since this is hard I didn't think up an idea for how to address this.
Since there's also the question whether the hotplug uevent will fare well
before the drm_dev_register() call ...
