I'll tell you what I "think" is causing the null pointer deref, but like
always I reserve the right to be wrong.

The driver checks for the primary planes and assigns them to active
video ports. For the rk3566 it's skipping the 3 planes mentioned
above for the RK3566. As a result if there is more than 1 active video
port for the rk3566 (or more than 2 for the rk3568 I'm assuming) it
doesn't set vp->primary_plane = win for that port. Slightly below that
it iterates through the active video ports again and runs
drm_crtc_init_with_planes on them. Only in this case one of the ports
doesn't have a plane, which is where it does the null pointer deref,
because the plane is null.

Should we just set it right in rockchip_vop2_reg.c? The vop2_win_data
it is using for the rk3566 is identical to the rk3568, but should it
be?

I'll level with you, I'm out of my element trying to solve a problem
with a board that has both a DSI and HDMI output. If I try to use
the DSI and HDMI output on the same video port, the HDMI sets the
DCLK_VOPx (where x is whichever port) to 24000000, and as a result
the panel is displayed wrong. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be
able to simultaneously display an image on the DSI panel and the
HDMI (though if I could that would be cool), but I'd like to have
them both enabled so I can switch between them. For now I can get
it to work if I put them on different video ports, of course that
means I have to either disable the HDMI or remove the code listed
in this "fix". It should be noted that I can now confirm that while
this fixes the null pointer dereference it brings back some of the
issues you found earlier in testing, so obviously this isn't the
right way to do it and I'm withdrawing this as a patch.

Thank you.
