This patch fixes null pointer dereference issue incurred when ipp driver is enabled and Exynos drm driver is closed.
Non kms driver should register its own sub driver to setup necessary resources, which is done by load(). So null pointer dereference occurs when ipp driver is enabled and Exynos drm driver is closed because ipp core device is registered after component_master_add_with_match call.
This patch makes exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe() to be called after all non kms drivers are registered.
This patch is breaking exynos initialization, exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe() needs the drvdata but it is still NULL at this point which make the whole exynos init fails. The drvdata is only set in exynos_drm_load() so we need call exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe() after that.
There might be my missing point but with this patch, exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe() will be called after exynos_drm_load() call because all kms drivers are probed before component_master_add_with_match call so exynos_drm_load() must be called by component_master_add_with_match function before exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe call.
So could you show me the error messages you faced with? There might be a corner case I missed.
I've added some debug output to it. It fails on exynos_drm_device_subdrv_probe() because the drvdata is NULL. I've added debug output to exynos_drm_load() and as you can see it doesn't get called before subdrv_probe(). I'm testing this on snow.
