The objective is that all bridge drivers shall support a chained setup connector creation is moved to the display drivers. This is just one step on this path. The general approach for the bridge drivers: - Introduce bridge operations - Introduce use of panel bridge and make connector creation optional v4: - Dropped patch for ti-sn65dsi86. Await full conversion. - Dropped patch for ti-tpd12s015. It was wrong (Laurent) - Drop boe,hv070wsa-100 patch, it was applied - Combined a few patches to fix connector created twice (Laurent) - Fix memory leak in get_edid in several drivers (Laurent) - Added patch to validate panel descriptions in panel-simple - Set bridge.type in relevant drivers v3: - Rebase on top of drm-misc-next - Address kbuild test robot feedback v2: - Updated bus_flags for boe,hv070wsa-100 - Collected r-b, but did not apply patches yet - On the panel side the panel-simple driver gained a default connector type for all the dumb panels that do not include so in their description. With this change panels always provide a connector type, and we have the potential to drop most uses of devm_drm_panel_bridge_add_typed(). - Added conversion of a few more bridge drivers Patches can build but no run-time testing. So both test and review feedback appreciated!
