If we have this here, then we should also have hpd-gpios defined here as where we describe a connection we should also describe no connection. Now, hpd-gpios is a bit of a mess being defined in both connector nodes and bridge (HDMI/DP) nodes. I think that is just history pre-dating connector nodes. Connector nodes are now the preferred place. Connector nodes and panel nodes are essentially the same thing (the endpoint of display pipeline). That being said, this patch is fine as is.
