[PATCH 00/17] DRM: imx spring-cleaning

[Marco Felsch]

Hi all,

the purpose of this patch series is to address bug reported here
[1]. There where two approaches [2,3] to fix this but non of them get
mainline. The issue is caused by the fact that we are using devres
allocation for the driver (pd,ldb,hdmi,tve) state struct which holds
also the 'struct drm_encoder/connector'. 

We need to move the driver state containers containing the drm members
out of the devres memory management into the drm memory management
framework to fix the bug [1]. Therefore we need to split the single
driver state struct into two: one for the drm_connector device and one
for the drm_encoder device.

The series removes some legacy code paths too and removes the useless
imx_drm_encoder_destroy() API.

Pls don't be surprised about the edid memory leak fix patches. I went
this way because those patche can be applied independently of the last
patch which did the conversion from the devres alloc to the non-devres
alloc.

I did the following tests for each component:
 - probe successful
 - correct failure handling during probe
 - bind / unbind (module load/unload)

I also kept a few lines longer than 80char to improve readability.

Other tester are welcome =)

Regards,
  Marco
