I understand your point. what I'm saying here is, This patch introduces two new bridge API's devm_drm_panel_bridge_add drm_bridge_connector_init In order to add these API's the driver has to support the bridge first. All the patches before this one support bridge and this patch introduce new APIs, ie the reason we have code removed in this patch which has been added before. Okay. I think I will send the next version series till bridge conversion. Improvement patches like this can take care of later versions and even it depends on Patch v3 5/7 which indeed require a separate discussion. This way it makes less confusion. Hope it's fine for you?
