Linus Walleij d6a77ba0eb Revert "drm/panel: Add device_link from panel device to DRM device" 
This reverts commit 0c08754b59.

commit 0c08754b59
("drm/panel: Add device_link from panel device to DRM device")
creates a circular dependency under these circumstances:

1. The panel depends on dsi-host because it is MIPI-DSI child
   device.
2. dsi-host depends on the drm parent device (connector->dev->dev)
   this should be allowed.
3. drm parent dev (connector->dev->dev) depends on the panel
   after this patch.

This makes the dependency circular and while it appears it
does not affect any in-tree drivers (they do not seem to have
dsi hosts depending on the same parent device) this does not
seem right.

As noted in a response from Andrzej Hajda, the intent is
likely to make the panel dependent on the DRM device
(connector->dev) not its parent. But we have no way of
doing that since the DRM device doesn't contain any
struct device on its own (arguably it should).

Revert this until a proper approach is figured out.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
