While it works, for the most part, to assume that the panel has
finished probing when devm_of_dp_aux_populate_ep_devices() returns,
it's a bit fragile. This is talked about at length in commit
a1e3667a9835 ("drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi86: Promote the AUX channel to
its own sub-dev").

When reviewing the ps8640 code, I managed to convince myself that it
was OK not to worry about it there and that maybe it wasn't really
_that_ fragile. However, it turns out that it really is. Simply
hardcoding panel_edp_probe() to return -EPROBE_DEFER was enough to put
the boot process into an infinite loop. I believe this manages to trip
the same issues that we used to trip with the main MSM code where
something about our actions trigger Linux to re-probe previously
deferred devices right away and each time we try again we re-trigger
Linux to re-probe.

Let's fix this using the callback introduced in the patch ("drm/dp:
Callbacks to make it easier for drivers to use DP AUX bus properly").
When using the new callback, we have to be a little careful. The
probe_done() callback is no longer always called in the context of
our probe routine. That means we can't rely on being able to return
-EPROBE_DEFER from it. We re-jigger the order of things a bit to
account for that.

With this change, the device still boots (though obviously the panel
doesn't come up) if I force panel-edp to always return
-EPROBE_DEFER. If I fake it and make the panel probe exactly once it
also works.

Changes in v3:
- Adapt to v3 changes in aux bus.
- Use devm_drm_bridge_add() to simplify.

Changes in v2:
- Rewrote atop new method introduced by patch #1.
