drm_connector_dynamic_init() is the more explicit approach, my suggestion
was to just hard-code this behavior for dp mst connectors. Which is a bit
a hack. Either is fine with me.

I don't think you need to check for registered connectors. For dynamic
ones this should be impossible, and userspace cannot call any ioctl before
drm_dev_register registers all the non-dynamic connectors.

I don't think you need that special case, the current code should work,
even for dynamic connectors?
