This patch updates the MIPI DBI driver to use drm_device.debugfs_root
instead of drm_minor for creating debugfs files. The debugfs setup is now
done earlier in probe(), before drm_dev_register(), and the drivers can
avoid using the .debugfs_init callback.
This is an initial version, and only a few drivers are updated for now.
I noticed that some newer drivers or patches still use
drm_debugfs_create_files(), which relies on drm_minor. I was wondering if
there is a specific reason for this, or if there's a plan to switch to
drm_debugfs_add_files? I can send patches to update more drivers if
that helps.
This patch helps move toward the debugfs cleanup task listed here:

Looking forward to your feedback.
