ok I will also try to buy a Rockchip 3036 board for self-test.
According to the commit log idea provided by Andy before, make the inno_hdmi driver common module.

would the steps be ok? (if I tested rockchip and starifve pass)
1. split the inno_hdmi.c under rockchip to  inno_hdmi.c(the common part), inno_hdmi-rockchip.c(the soc specific part)
2. move the common part inno_hdmi.c to drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/innosilicon/
3. add startfive specific part, inno_hdmi-startfive.c

Thanks
