Just jumping in here: You cannot hotplug/hotremove anything from a
drm_device after drm_dev_register has been called, except
drm_connector. I didn't dig into details here so not sure whether you
want to late-bind your bridge after drm_dev_register is called or not,
so might just be fyi and not relevant to the discussion.
