No, there's tons of functional changes. The memory used to be allocated
with devres helpers and released automatically. In rare circumstances,
the memory's release could have happened before the DRM device got
released, which would have caused memory corruption of some kind.

Now you're embedding the data structures in struct hibmc_drm_private,
which is good. The whole release problem has been resolved, because
struct hibmc_drm_private is allocated with drmm_kzalloc and always
released with the DRM device. You're commit message should mention all this.

There was a TODO comment that mentioned overlay planes. I suggest
calling this field primary_plane, so it's clear which plane it represents.
