[PATCH 1/2] drm/property: Enforce more lifetime rules

[Daniel Vetter]

Properties can't be attached after registering, userspace would get
confused (no one bothers to reprobe really).

- Add kerneldoc
- Enforce this with some checks. This needs a somewhat ugly check
  since connectors can be added later on, but we still need to attach
  all properties before they go public.

Note that we already enforce that properties themselves are created
before the entire device is registered.
