Got it! I can remove these in v2.

That's right. I cannot use bridge_atomic_pre_enable /
bridge_atomic_enable here. But that's because my source is CRTC, which
gets enabled via crtc_atomic_enable.

Of course! I can elaborate on the order.

Without my patches (and given there isn't any bridge setting the
"pre_enable_prev_first" flag) the order of enable for any single display
chain, looks like this -

	crtc_enable
	
	bridge[n]_pre_enable
	---
	bridge[1]_pre_enable

	encoder_enable

	bridge[1]_enable
	---
	bridge[n]_enable

The tidss enables at the crtc_enable level, and hence is the first
entity with stream on. cdns-dsi doesn't stand a chance with
bridge_atmoic_pre_enable / bridge_atmoic_enable hooks. And there is no
bridge call happening before crtc currently.

That's where the early_enable APIs come into picture. They are being
called before the crtc is even enabled, helping cdns-dsi to be enabled
before tidss. The order then looks like -


	bridge[1]_early_enable
	---
	bridge[n]_early_enable

	crtc_enable
	---
	(the order is same from here on)
