That code could be reworked, by initializing the layers directly within
the crtc init code. If you look at rockchip's drm driver, you'll see
they do this. There is a good reason to do it this way, as you need
to first create the primary and cursor layers, pass them in when you
create the crtc, then initialize any additional layers with the
possible_crtcs bitmap.

In our driver we are currently initializing all layers, then going
back and filling in possible_crtcs for the extra layers.

And as Maxime and I mentioned in the other thread, we don't really
need to keep a reference to **layers.
