That's correct-for most SoCs the AUX channel is actually a standalone platform
device that isn't associated with the DRM device by default. /But/ I went
through the tree yesterday and the day before and did a bunch of cleanup around
DP aux registration, added a drm_dev field and hooked it up in every driver with
an aux channel, and then converted all of the DP helpers (including dual mode
and MST) over to using drm_dbg_*() variants. Once I've gotten through reading
all my email for today I'm going to do a quick sanity check on it and then post
the series to dri-devel.

asked me a question, are waiting for a review/merge on a patch, etc. and I
haven't responded in a while, please feel free to send me another email to check
on my status. I don't bite!
