drm/property: Enforce more lifetime rules
Properties can't be attached after registering, userspace would get confused (no one bothers to reprobe really). - Add kerneldoc - Enforce this with some checks. This needs a somewhat ugly check since connectors can be added later on, but we still need to attach all properties before they go public. Note that we already enforce that properties themselves are created before the entire device is registered. Unfortunately this doesn't work for drivers which have a ->load callback, see commit e0f32f78 (tag: drm-misc-next-fixes-2019-09-18) Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Tue Sep 17 14:09:35 2019 +0200 drm/kms: Duct-tape for mode object lifetime checks for the full story. v2: Fix the superflous newline (Jani) and add commit citation to explain why we need to check for dev->registered (Thierry).
