Minor fixup for that part below.

Please call rockchip_drm_load here directly and don't put it as the ->load
function into the driver vtable. The point of the alloc/register split is
that the driver can be completely set up _before_ we register anything.
But for backwards compat and historical reasons ->load is called somewhere
in the middle (so that you could access the minor nodes if needed, since
some drivers do that).

Cheers, Daniel
