smatch reports:
drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm/dss/base.c:176 omapdss_device_disconnect() error: we previously assumed 'src' could be null (see line 169)
This code is mostly from a time when omapdrm had its own display device
model. I can't honestly remember the details, and I don't think it's
worth digging in deeply into that for a legacy driver.
However, it looks like we only call omapdss_device_disconnect() and
omapdss_device_connect() with NULL as the src parameter. We can thus
drop the src parameter from both functions, and fix the smatch warning.
I don't think omapdss_device_disconnect() ever gets NULL for the dst
parameter (if it did, we'd crash soon after returning from the
function), but I have kept the !dst check, just in case, but I added a
WARN_ON() there.
Also, if the dst parameter can be NULL, we can't always get the struct
dss_device pointer from dst->dss (which is only used for a debug print).
To make sure we can't hit that issue, do it similarly to the
omapdss_device_connect() function: add 'struct dss_device *dss' as the
first parameter, so that we always have it regardless of the dst.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
