If I recall, the late_initcall stuff was done to try and make sure the 
tda998x/i2c subsystem came up before tilcdc. However it didn't always 
work so we added commit: 39de6194131c155901f96686a063212656d80c2e to try 
and ensure the ordering.  This might be why changing back to module_init 
is fine (and I agree with your assessment from my testing).
