Not sure, since it's used in a few places. Could rename it to
drm_connector_init_core_and_add() for clarity.

Not sure how the drmm API would work on MST where connectors should be
freed dynamically, at least it doesn't work as-is; and MST is where
initialising and adding a connector separately matters - at least for
i915 - vs. other static connector types where it doesn't.
If needed, adding a drmm version of initialising a connector without
adding it would be simple, but based on the above I don't think it's
needed atm.
