Subject: [PATCH 5.7 446/477] drm/connector: notify userspace on hotplug after register complete

From: Jeykumar Sankaran <jsanka@...eaurora.org>

commit 968d81a64a883af2d16dd3f8a6ad6b67db2fde58 upstream.

drm connector notifies userspace on hotplug event prematurely before
late_register and mode_object register completes. This leads to a race
between userspace and kernel on updating the IDR list. So, move the
notification to end of connector register.
