This patch series converts DRM modeset object allocations from devm_*()

This can prevent potential use-after free issues on driver unload or
EPROBE_DEFERRED backoff.

Yeah, the driver had a lot of this kind of issues.

As it turns out, at the moment you sent it, I was applying a larger
series (hopefully) addressing all of them:

Ah, great! That's covering even more than the series I sent.
