This function installs plane properties. So it need to be in its old
location after drm_universal_plane_init() and before
drm_mode_config_reset(). It should be renamed to
gud_plane_add_properties(). See [1] for the connector equivalent.

After you've called drm_kms_helper_poll_init(), DRM could query the
connector for attached displays at any time. This might require the usb
interface to point to the gud device. And the DRM driver also needs to
know about the DMA device. I quick look through the driver code suggest
that it works without, but better not count on it.
Best would be to move this line and the block with the DMA setup [2]
just after where the gud device got allocated with devmdrm_dev_alloc(). [3]
