The pointer connector is being assigned a value that is never read, it is being updated immediately afterwards. The assignment is redundant and can be removed.
The pointer to the connector is used in rockchip_rgb_fini for drm_connector_cleanup. It's pretty much the same for the encoder, btw.
I think the issue is more the two lines
connector = &rgb->connector; connector = drm_bridge_connector_init(rgb->drm_dev, encoder);
hence the connector = &rgb->connector being overwritten immediately after
Now that I look at it again, the whole approach looks strange. drm_bridge_connector_init() creates the connector structure and returns a pointer to it.
So the first line below sets the connector pointer to point to the &rgb->connector element and the second line then set a completely different address into it.
So the connector element in rockchip_lvds and rockchip_rgb should actually become a pointer itself to hold the connector element returned from drm_bridge_connector_init() .
