In general drm core should free drm resources, doing it in component can
hurt some day. Maybe it would be good to move some stuff from
bind/unbind to probe/remove if necessary, to allow connector and encoder
to live little bit longer, and be destroyed by drm core. This is just
suggestion, I am not familiar enough with the driver to make stronger
statements :)
