So I'm super late to the party because I kinda ignored all things CEC thus
far. Ḯ'm not sure this is a great design, with two main concerns:

- notifiers have a tendency to make locking utter painful. By design
  notifiers use their own lock to make sure any callbacks don't disappear
  unduly, but then on the other hand the locking order at
  register/unregister time is inverted. Or anything where you need to go
  the other way. For simple things it works, but my experience is that
  sooner or later things stop being simple, and then you're in complete
  pain. Viz fbdev notifier. I much more prefer if we have a direct
  interface, where we can define the lifetime rules and locking rules
  seperately, and if needed separately for each interface. Especially for
  something which is meant to connect different drivers from different
  subsystems so widely.
  
  You could object that this is the only interaction, and therefore there
  can't be loops, but we have dma-buf, reservation_obj and dma_fence
  sharing going on between lots of drivers already, and lots more will
  follow, so there's plenty of other cross-subsystem interactions going on
  to help complete the loop.

- The other concern I have is that we already have interfaces for ELD and
  hotplug notification. Atm their only restricted for use between gfx and
  snd, and e.g. i915 rolls 2 different kinds of its own, but there is a
  semi-standard one:

  include/sound/hdmi-codec.h

  That also deals with ELD and stuff, would be great if we don't force
  drivers to signal ELD changes in multiple different ways. Also, CEC
  should only exist with a HDMI output, so same thing.

- Afaiui we'll always should have a 1:1 mapping between drm HDMI connector
  and a given CEC pin. Notifiers are for n:m, how is this supposed to work
  if you have multiple HDMI ports around? I see that you look up by struct
  device, but it's a bit unclear what kind of device is supposed to be
  used as the key. If we extend the hdmi-codec stuff from sound and make
  it a notch more generic, then we'd already have the arbiter object to
  ties things together.

Just some thoughts on this. And again my apologies for being late with my
input.

Thanks, Daniel
