I will push a new proposal about how the devices & drivers get probed.

True. I need to also export host1x_channel_free (I will change the name,
too).

I'll add locking.

No, host1x_syncpt_incr_byid is SMP safe.

Same here, SMP safe.

Actually, alloc_resources only allocates intr->syncpt, so I the code to
host1x_intr_init().

_host1x_syncpt_alloc is an internal function, not exported.
host1x_syncpt_alloc is exported. I think it's even better if I just move
allocation of nop_sp to happen in host1x_syncpt_init.

I added a few other dev_err()'s and checked the deinitialization on
error, too.

I removed the extra entries, and I added a short comment about nop_sp.

In future, we'll call host1x_intr_start() whenever host1x is turned on.
Thus we need locking.

init_host_sync() should actually be called from host1x_intr_start(), not
_init().

Will do.
