In preparation for registering the mdss interrupt controller earlier, move the allocation of msm_drm_private from component bind time to msm_drv probe; this also allows us to use the devm variant of kzalloc. Since it is not right to allocate the drm_device at probe time (as it should exist only when all components are bound, and taken down when components get cleaned up), the only way to make this happen is to pass a pointer to msm_drm_private as driver data (like done in many other DRM drivers), instead of one to drm_device like it's currently done in this driver. This is also simplifying some bind/unbind functions around drm/msm, as some of them are using drm_device just to grab a pointer to the msm_drm_private structure, which we now retrieve in one call.

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.
