Ah, I see what the problem is. It looks like the main Rockchip
subsystem moved to atomic but the patch to support that in dw_hdmi
never landed. If I pick <https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/7868951/>
then my crash goes away. :)
In case it's not obvious, please consider $SUBJECT patch abandoned. Thanks!
