The problem 2) is not driver generator related. @Konrad, did you see it on asus-z00t-tm5p5-n35596 driver?
Do you have CONFIG_DRM_MSM=y (built-in) instead of =m (module) maybe? I think a similar issue exists on MSM8916 but it does not happen for some reason if CONFIG_DRM_MSM=m instead of =y. Somehow having it load later during the boot process fixes some things there.
Indeed! I have CONFIG_DRM_MSM=y in my build, and changing it to module removes the problem. Thanks much for the hint, Stephan!
