Right, I've just checked it and indeed the display chain outputs nothing after such 'fix'. To get it finally working I've replaced drm_bridge_chain_*() operations for exynos_dsi 'out_bridge' by a direct calls. I will submit a patch in a few minutes. I hope that such workaround can be used now to fix the regression until a better solution is agreed.
