are you using a clean exynos_defconfig?
don't you need Javier's "drm/exynos: Move platform drivers registration to
module init" patch too?

kgene/for-next at:

7552917 Revert "ARM: exynos_defconfig: Enable options for display panel support"

plus:

5e1e068 arm: dts: Exynos5: Use pmu_system_controller phandle for dp phy
36d908e drm/exynos: dp: Remove support for unused dptx-phy
624bff2 POSTED: mfd: syscon: Decouple syscon interface from syscon devices
68944e3 Revert "Revert "ARM: exynos_defconfig: Enable options for display panel support""

hangs with a black screen (albeit backlight seems to be on) on boot.
I'm betting on Javier's patch at this point (i even tried disabling SND_SOC_SNOW
but that didn't help).
