Yes, I think that would be better indeed. You could even skip the
dynamic allocation, you could have

	struct drm_encoder *encoder;
	struct drm_encoder internal_encoder;

in drm_writeback_connector, and set

	wb->encoder = &wb->internal_encoder;

when the user doesn't pass an encoder.

How about adding a possible_crtcs argument to
drm_writeback_connector_init() (to cover existing use cases), and adding
a new drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder() that would get an
encoder pointer (and expect possible_crtcs, as well as all the other
appropriate encoder fields, having been initialized) ?
