That sounds like a good idea.
It would leave out these which doesn't use that _attach function though:
- i2c/ch7006_drv.c
- i915/intel_tv.c
Not sure how to handle those. i915 uses the connector state to set the
initial margins. Can we set the margins on the connector state in
drm_connector_init() and use those as default values in
drm_connector_attach_tv_margin_properties()?
