[PATCH 0/6] drm/panel: Use refcounted allocation in place of devm_kzalloc() - Part4

Use the new API devm_drm_panel_alloc() for panel allocations.
A major chunk of driver conversion was sent in a 3 part series
which is already merged. The coccinelle patch that was used to
identify unsafe panel allocations didnt flag about 20 drivers.

Not using any semantic patch for the remaining drivers.
Apart from addressing a part of missing drivers, this series also
does the conversion by not passing explicit type to the helper and
maintaining type safety suggested by Geert.

Link to part 1, 2 and 3 of driver conversion:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/147082/
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/147157/
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/147246/

Geert's suggestion
https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/CAN9Xe3TXZa1nrCLkHadiBkOO=q1ue8Jwc3V13pXcbAc9AFS2-Q@mail.gmail.com/

14 more to go which will be sent once this series gets feedback.
