An error while initializing the msm driver ends up calling drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() without first initializing the funcs in mode_config. While I'm not 100% sure this isn't a ordering problem in msm adding a check to drm_mode_alloc seems like a nice and safe solution.

Hm yeah this looks a bit too much like ducttape. I think Noralf started working on some ideas of devm-like automatic cleanup for drm stuff (we cannot use devm, that has the wrong lifetimes, despite all the drivers using it).

Simple fix would be to move up the assignment of config.funcs to be much earlier in your driver load I guess. -Daniel
