Iirc we have new drm_connector_{un,}register_all() helpers.You might
want to use it once they are in (i.e. not sure what your base is and
if they have landed yet).

This seems like a common pattern in many platform DRM drivers. Yet
some tend to differ in subtle ways - I'm leaning that they might be
bugs, but one cannot be too sure.

A friendly request:
Can you please follow up by adding a helper and removing the
duplication thoughout ?

Thanks
