As I tried to explain before, if you wrap the panel in a bridge with
drm_panel_bridge_add() (or the devm_ variant), you will always have a
bridge associated with the output, and will be able to remove your
custom connector implementation. I thus recommend converting to
drm_panel_bridge_add() either as part of this patch series, or just
after it, to get full benefits.

With the assumption that this will be handled,
