While the above works, it feels like we could do better. What about this?

* We add _some_ way to determine if a bridge is actually a
panel_bridge. If nothing else maybe this could be
drm_bridge_is_panel() and it could just check if bridge.funcs ==
panel_bridge_bridge_funcs

* In drm_bridge_connector_init(), when we're looping through all the
bridges we find the panel_bridge if it's there.

* At the end of drm_bridge_connector_init() if we found a panel_bridge
then we call a function like drm_panel_bridge_set_orientation().


Then you can fully get rid of the mediatek patch, right? The above
will only work if you're using a panel_bridge / bridge_connector, but
that's "the future" anyway and we want to encourage people to
transition to that.
