The only thing now that makes drm_dev_unplug() special is that it sets drm_device->unplugged. Move this code to drm_dev_unregister() so that we can remove drm_dev_unplug().

Read once more with a bit more coffee, spotted this:
s/first/afterwards/ - shutting down the hw before we've taken it away from userspace is kinda the wrong way round. It should be the inverse of driver load, which is 1) allocate structures 2) prep hw 3) register driver with the world (simplified ofc).
The problem is that drm_dev_unregister() sets the device as unplugged and if drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() is called afterwards it's not allowed to touch hardware.
I know it's the wrong order, but the only way to do it in the right order is to have a separate function that sets unplugged:
drm_dev_unregister(); drm_atomic_helper_shutdown(); drm_dev_set_unplugged();
Annoying ... but yeah calling _shutdown() before we stopped userspace is also not going to work. Because userspace could quickly re-enable something, and then the refcounts would be all wrong again and leaking objects.
What happens with a USB device that is unplugged with open userspace, will that leak objects?
I get a bit the feeling we're over-optimizing here with trying to devm-ize drm_dev_register. Just getting drm_device correctly devm-ized is a big step forward already, and will open up a lot of TODO items across a lot of drivers. E.g. we could add a drm_dev_kzalloc, for allocating all the drm_* structs, which gets released together with drm_device. I think that's a much clearer path forward, I think we all agree that getting the kfree out of the driver codes is a good thing, and it would allow us to do this correctly.
Then once we have that and rolled out to a few drivers we can reconsider the entire unregister/shutdown gordian knot here. Atm I just have no idea how to do this properly :-/
Thoughts, other ideas?
Yeah, I've come to the conclusion that devm_drm_dev_register() doesn't make much sense if we need a driver remove callback anyways.
I think devm_drm_dev_init() makes sense because it yields a cleaner probe() function. An additional benefit is that it requires a drm_driver->release function which is a step in the right direction to get the drm_device lifetime right.
Do we agree that a drm_dev_set_unplugged() function is necessary to get the remove/disconnect order right?
What about drm_dev_unplug() maybe I should just leave it be?
- amd uses drm_driver->unload, so that one takes some work to get right to support unplug. It doesn't check the unplugged state, so really doesn't need drm_dev_unplug() I guess. Do they have cards that can be hotplugged? - udl uses drm_driver->unload, doesn't use drm_atomic_helper_shutdown(). It has only one drm_dev_is_unplugged() check and that is in its fbdev->open callback. - xen calls drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() in its drm_driver->release callback which I guess is not correct.
This is what it will look like with a set unplugged function:
void drm_dev_unplug(struct drm_device *dev) { drm_dev_set_unplugged(dev); drm_dev_unregister(dev); drm_dev_put(dev); }
Hm, I should probably remove it to avoid further use of it since it's not correct for a modern driver.

I think it'd be good to keep the first part, and just update the reference to drm_dev_unregister. So:

I think your version shrugs a few important details under the rug. With those nits addressed:
