I went back and forth through the drivers and I believe at least the
idea is that we probe all the drivers, which will acquire some
resources.

Then in bind() we actually start to access the hardware (and acquire
more resources, for some reason).

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the component framework, but I was under
the impression that if any of the subcomponents fails to probe because
of lacking resources, this could be printed on the efifb before we reset
the hardware. Making errors slightly more user friendly.

I.e. in the timeframe between of_platform_populate() and
component_bind_all() below...


But if you believe I'm incorrect on the assumptions about the hardware
not being accessed before this point, I can move the reset before
of_platform_populate() - this is the last piece needed to have
functional eDP on sc8180x.

There seems to be some room for reducing duplication between the two
drivers, so this seems reasonable.
