I don't understand the purpose of this patch. I'll grant you that the
current implementation of drm_panel_detach() is not very useful, but
then you add code to drm_panel_detach() in the next patch and mention
in the commit message that panel drivers should be calling the
drm_panel_detach() function to remove the link.

This is confusing. Can you clarify?
