The purpose of "internal_hpd" is to indicate track if the internal
HPD-logic should be used or not.

The DRM framework will invoke hpd_enable on the bridge furthest out that
has OP_HPD. So in the case of HPD signal being pinmuxed into the
HPD-logic, dp_bridge_hpd_enable() will be invoked.
I therefor think the appropriate thing to do is to move the enablement
of the internal HPD-logic to dp_bridge_hpd_enable(), further more I
think the correct thing to do would be to tie the power state of the DP
block to this (and to when the external hpd_notify events signals that
there's something attached).

It seems logical to me that the panel driver should handle HPD signaling
(or signal it always-asserted), in which case it also seems reasonable
that hpd_enable() would not be invoked... I didn't go far enough into
that rabbit hole though, but I think it would allow us to drop the
is_edp flag (which isn't at all a property of the controller, but of
what you have connected).
I don't think we should peak into the pinmux settings to determine if
the internal HPD logic should be enabled or not, when the DRM framework
already has this callback to tell us "hey, you're the one doing HPD
detection!".
And as mentioned above, the continuation of this is to tie the power
state to hpd_enable/hpd_disable/hpd_notify and thereby allow the DP
block (and MMCX) to be powered down when nothing is connected (and we
don't need to drive the HPD logic).
