The current recommendation is for new drivers to call: drm_dev_register(); drm_connector_register_all(); because of a limitation in the API for old drivers using driver->load() and being unable to call drm_connector_register() multiple times. Now that drm_connector_register() is safe for multiple uses, we can combine the two steps into one (drm_dev_register()). -Chris
