drm_writeback_connector_init() hides the encoder inside struct
drm_writeback_connector, which is the only reason that structure carries
an encoder at all. Every other writeback user already owns its encoder.
Embed the encoder in the driver's own structure and register the
connector with drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder(), so that the
encoder can be dropped from drm_writeback_connector.

an encoder at all. Every other writeback user already owns its encoder.
Embed the encoder in the driver's own structure and register the
connector with drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder(), so that the
encoder can be dropped from drm_writeback_connector.

drm_writeback_connector_init() hides the encoder inside struct
drm_writeback_connector, which is the only reason that structure carries
an encoder at all. Every other writeback user already owns its encoder.
Embed the encoder in the driver's own structure and register the
connector with drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder(), so that the
encoder can be dropped from drm_writeback_connector.

Rename drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder() to
drm_writeback_connector_init() and adapt its interface to follow
drmm_writeback_connector_init(). Drop references to the "custom encoder"
from the documentation since it's now the only way to specify the
encoder to the writeback connector.

The writeback properties are created once per device and attached to
every writeback connector. Nevertheless, a failing
__drm_writeback_connector_init() destroys all three of them. If an
earlier writeback connector has already been registered (komeda and
rcar-du create one per CRTC), it is left holding stale property
pointers. The drmm cleanup action likewise destroys them as soon as the
first connector goes away.
Leave the properties alone. They are on the device's property list, so
drm_mode_config_cleanup() destroys them together with all other
properties.

If a user attaches a private property to a connector, are they
responsible for calling put on that property during cleanup?
In that case, can drmm* functions be used to clean up these
properties? Thank you.

Only drmm_writeback_connector_init() registers
drm_writeback_connector_cleanup(). Connectors set up with
drm_writeback_connector_init() (amdgpu, komeda, malidp, rcar-du, vc4)
never drop the formats blob or free the jobs still on the queue, leaking
them together with their framebuffer and fence references.
Call drm_writeback_connector_cleanup() from drm_connector_cleanup() for
writeback connectors, the same way the HDMI audio and SCDC state is torn
down there, so it runs for both kinds of initialization. The drmm action
now just wraps it. Clearing the blob pointer makes the second invocation
a no-op and also covers drm_connector_cleanup() being called after a
failed __drm_writeback_connector_init().

drmm_connector_init() already registers drm_connector_cleanup() as a
managed action, and that now cleans up the writeback state too. The
extra action registered by drmm_writeback_connector_init() just does the
same work a little earlier, leaving drm_connector_cleanup() nothing to
do. Drop it.

Is there an intent to move everyone over to the drmm version in a future
patch set? Or is the plan to give up on that as being just too
complicated for the benefit?
