Yuck!

Surely there is a better way. From what I've seen of DRM, I have no
doubt this is needed, but really a better solution is needed. Surely
there can be a more generic way for the driver to determine if it
should handle the connector or not. This seems like a common problem
including one I have seen. What I'm working on has onchip DSI encoder
-> ADV7533 -> HDMI. The DSI encoder can also have a direct attached
panel. So I have to check for a bridge in the encoder driver and only
register the connector for the panel if a bridge is not attached.
