The above crash has been caused by lack of in_bridge initialization to 
NULL in exynos_dsi_bind() in this patch. However, fixing it reveals 
another issue:

This means that dsi->encoder.dev is not initialized in 
__exynos_dsi_host_attach().

This happens, because drm_bridge_attach() in exynos_dsi_bind() returned 
earlier -517 (deferred probe), what causes cleanup of encoder and 
release of all drm resources.

Then however, the panel tries to register itself and 
exynos_dsi_host_attach() tries to access the released encoder (which is 
zeroed in drm_encoder_release) and rest of resources, what causes failure.

It looks that something is missing. Maybe mipi host has to be registered 
later, when bridge is ready? I have no idea how it is handled before 
this patch. Andrzej, could you comment it a bit?

Best regards
