Describing what the code does is nice and good, however it is also
useful to have a description of what the patch fixes, or why the fix
provided by the patch is better.

In this case, we need drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() to be called before
component_unbind_all() otherwise the connectors attached to the
component device will have the wrong reference count value and will not
be cleanly cleared up.
