Look like it is not possible to use DRM-managed action helper here as
devm_drm_of_dsi_get_bridge is calling from the DSI host attach hook in
which we cannot find drm_device pointer (as drm_device pointer is
mandatory for using DRM-managed action).

Please check and correct me if I mentioned any incorrect details.

Thanks,
Jagan.
