[PATCH] drm/exynos: hdmi: take i2c adapter module reference

From: Johan Hovold

Date: Thu Jul 16 2026 - 09:18:44 EST


The i2c subsystem currently blocks during adapter deregistration
whenever there are consumers holding a reference.

Switch to using of_get_i2c_adapter_by_node() which also takes a
reference to the adapter module so that an attempt to unload the module
while in use fails gracefully instead of blocking uninterruptibly.
