Hi Laurent,
sorry, you're right, this patch should not be needed.
the connector should be cleanup by
drm_mode_config_cleanup->drm_connector_put.
i did that in analogix_dp is to avoid a use-after-free issue not
kmemleak, because the connector was allocated/freed in analogix_dp's
bind/unbind.
but i found a kmemleak issue(dma_mask not freed) in dw-hdmi when testing
that, will send patch soon.

We inited connector in attach(), so need a detach() to cleanup.
Do we ? The dw-hdmi driver already sets drm_connector_cleanup() as the
connector .destroy() handler, and the .destroy() operation is called
by the
DRM core. None of the other bridge drivers call drm_connector_cleanup()
directly.
hmmm, checking the code, there are also lots of drivers do the
cleanup(drm_connector_cleanup or funcs->destroy):
drm# grep -r "connector.*funcs->destroy" .
./rockchip/inno_hdmi.c: hdmi->connector.funcs->destroy(&hdmi->connector);
./rockchip/cdn-dp-core.c: connector->funcs->destroy(connector);
./bridge/analogix/analogix_dp_core.c:
dp->connector.funcs->destroy(&dp->connector);
./msm/hdmi/hdmi.c: hdmi->connector->funcs->destroy(hdmi->connector);
./msm/dsi/dsi.c: msm_dsi->connector->funcs->destroy(msm_dsi->connector);
./msm/edp/edp.c: edp->connector->funcs->destroy(edp->connector);
./zte/zx_hdmi.c: hdmi->connector.funcs->destroy(&hdmi->connector);
./drm_connector.c: connector->funcs->destroy(connector);
./drm_connector.c: connector->funcs->destroy(connector);
./nouveau/dispnv04/disp.c: connector->funcs->destroy(connector);
./nouveau/nv50_display.c: mstc->connector.funcs->destroy(&mstc->connector);
./nouveau/nv50_display.c: connector->funcs->destroy(connector);
when i debug analogix_dp bind/unbind, i found that we need to cleanup
the connector(reported by kmemleak). so i added it to
./bridge/analogix/analogix_dp_core.c...after that i saw dw-hdmi missing
that too(by checking the code), so make this patch.
but i didn't really tested it on devices using dw-hdmi, so i'm not very
sure the dw-hdmi(maybe also other bridges) is the same with analogix_dp.
i can try to find a chromebook veyron to check it next week :)
but even there's a leak, i'm still not very sure about:
should the caller of drm_connector_init cleanup it
or the caller of drm_bridge_attach should do it(for example
analogix_dp_bind/analogix_dp_unbind)
or should the DRM core take care of that?
