There's actually a bug here. If the panel and DSI drivers are loaded in
parallel, sun6i_dsi_attach() can be called after sun6i_dsi_bind() but before
sun4i_framebuffer_init() initializes drm->mode_config.funcs, causing the hotplug
call to crash. This check also needs to consider dsi->drm->registered before
allowing the panel to be added.

I can send a v2 or a follow-up, whichever you prefer.

Thanks,
Samuel
