ADV7511 is represented as an i2c drm slave encoder device. ADV7533, on
the other hand, is going be a normal i2c client device creating bridge

Please, no. It's really time to stop piling hacks and fix the problem
properly. There's no reason to have separate APIs for I2C slave encoders and
DRM bridges. Those two APIs need to be merged, and then you'll find it much
easier to implement ADV7533 support.
i2c slave encoders and bridges aren't exactly the same. slave encoders
are used when the there is no real 'encoder' in the display chain.
bridges are used when there is already an encoder available, and the
bridge entity represents another encoder in the chain.
ADV7511 takes in RGB/MIPI DPI data, which is generally the output of a
crtc for drm drivers.
ADV7533 takes in MIPI DSI data, which is generally the output of an
encoder for drm drivers.
Therefore, having i2c slave encoder for the former and bridge for the
latter made sense to me.
I do agree that it would be better if they were somehow merged. It
would prevent the fragmentation we currently have among encoder
chips.
One possible way would be to convert slave encoder to bridge. With
this, an i2c slave encoder would be a 'dummy encoder' and a bridge.
i2c slave encoders even now just tie the slave encoder helper funcs
to encoder helper funcs. So it's not really any different.
Merging these 2 entities would be nice, but we're still shying away
from the larger problem of creating generic encoder chains. The
ideal solution would be for bridges and slave encoders to just be
'encoders', and the facility to connect on encoder output to the
input of another. I don't know how easy it is to do this, and
whether it'll break userspace.
Archit
Boris, I know you were experimenting with that, do you have anything to report
?
Move the code in encoder slave functions to generate helpers that are
agnostic to the drm object type. These helpers will later also be used
by bridge and connecter helper functions.
