Properties can't be attached after registering, userspace would get
confused (no one bothers to reprobe really).
- Add kerneldoc
- Enforce this with some checks. This needs a somewhat ugly check
since connectors can be added later on, but we still need to attach
all properties before they go public.
Note that we already enforce that properties themselves are created
before the entire device is registered.
Unfortunately this doesn't work for drivers which have a ->load
callback, see

drm/kms: Duct-tape for mode object lifetime checks
for the full story.
v2: Fix the superflous newline (Jani) and add commit citation to
explain why we need to check for dev->registered (Thierry).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
