Just build sun4i_drm_hdmi as module (CONFIG_DRM_SUN4I_HDMI=m). Then try
to unload the module:
# rmmod sun4i_drm_hdmi
And you get this:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
pgd = 6b032436
[00000000] *pgd=00000000
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] SMP ARM
Modules linked in: sun4i_drm_hdmi(-)
CPU: 0 PID: 1081 Comm: rmmod Not tainted 5.5.0-rc1-00030-g6ec417030d93 #33
Hardware name: Allwinner sun7i (A20) Family
PC is at drm_connector_cleanup+0x40/0x208
LR is at sun4i_hdmi_unbind+0x10/0x54 [sun4i_drm_hdmi]
...
I've tested that with sunxi/for-next branch on A20-OLinuXino board.
Best regards,
