I noticed that commit 8a3b4c17f863 ("drm/msm/dp: employ bridge mechanism for display
enable and disable") conflicts with the panel-edp (panel bridge)
support. Both bridges will try to attach directly to the drm encoder
itself. I started writing lengthy letter describing what is broken and
how it should be fixed. Then at some point I stopped and quickly coded
this RFC (which is compile-tested only).
Comments and tests (on both DP and eDP setups) are more than welcome.
The following changes since commit 6ed95285382d6f90a3c3a11d5806a5eb7db715c3:
