Add device_link from panel device (supplier) to drm device (consumer) when drm_panel_attach() is called. This patch should protect the master drm driver if an attached panel driver unbinds while it is in use. The device_link should make sure the drm device is unbound before the panel driver becomes unavailable.
The device_link is removed when drm_panel_detach() is called. The drm_panel_detach() should be called by the consumer DRM driver, not the panel driver, otherwise both drivers are racing to delete the same link.
