As I understand you have DSI host with i2c-controlled DSI bridge. And 
there is an issue that bridge is shutdown before msmdrm. Your solution 
is to 'adjust' device order on pm list.
I had similar issue and solved it locally by adding notification from 
DSI bridge to DSI host that is has to be removed: mipi_dsi_detach, this 
notification escalates in DSI host to component_del and this allow to 
react properly.

Advantages:
- it is local (only involves DSI host and DSI device),
- it does not depend on PM internals,
- it can be used in other scenarios as well - unbinding DSI device driver

Disadvantage:
- It is DSI specific (but this is your case), I have advertised some 
time ago more general approach [1][2].
