Hi,

on the changes for platform_get_resource(), you can

platform_get_resource() may fail and return NULL, so check it's value
before using it.

'drm' could be null in sprd_drm_shutdown, and drm_warn maybe dereference
it, remove this warning log.

You can add an error message if this fails.


ctx->base = devm_ioremap(dev, res->start, resource_size(res));
if (!ctx->base) {
dev_err(dev, "failed to map dpu registers\n");

This change should be in a separate patch. Instead of removing the warning, you should rather use dev_err() or dev_warn() from [1]. Not being able to shut down here looks like a serious driver bug that the user should know about.

Again, an error message seems appropriate.
