The tilcdc driver previously supported a sub-module system where
external display drivers (panels, encoders) could register themselves
through tilcdc_module_init() and be automatically initialized through
a module list. This infrastructure became unused after the component
framework support and panel driver was removed.

Is this hunk related to the removal of the module list? Looks like it
should be a separate patch.
Indeed it is not directly related, but a following cleanup. I will put it in
another patch.
With that hunk removed (or kept if I'm wrong and it should stay):
