This feels a bit backward, I think the clean solution would be to untangle
the SOR loading from the panel driver loading, and then only block
registering the overall drm_device on both drivers having loaded.

This here at least feels like a game of whack-a-mole, if like every driver
needs its own careful staging of everything.
