Yeah this can be removed and I can switch to platform_get_resource.

Noted.  I'll just remove it.  I was planning ahead when I added this, but I
can cross that bridge when I get there.

It was my understanding that you needed a hwmod entry that corresponded to
the device if you wanted to use omap_device_build().  In the case of
omap_drm, we don't have a hwmod entry.  We do have an entry for DMM.
