We'd like to be able to expose the DDC-over-AUX channel bus to our
panel. This gets into a chicken-and-egg problem because:
- The panel wants to get its DDC bus at probe time.
- The ti-sn65dsi86 MIPI-to-eDP bridge code, which provides the DDC
bus, wants to get the panel at probe time.
By using a sub device we can fully create the AUX channel bits so that
the panel can get them. Then the panel can finish probing and the
bridge can probe.
To accomplish this, we use the new functions introduced in ("drm/dp:
Allow an early call to register DDC i2c bus") to register the i2c bus
early.
NOTE: there's a little bit of a trick here. Though the AUX channel can
run without the MIPI-to-eDP bits of the code, the MIPI-to-eDP bits
can't run without the AUX channel. We could come up a complicated
signaling scheme (have the MIPI-to-eDP bits return EPROBE_DEFER for a
while or wait on some sort of completion), but it seems simple enough
to just not even bother creating the bridge device until the AUX
channel probes. That's what we'll do.

Commit 6cba3fe43341 ("drm/dp: Add backpointer to drm_device in
drm_dp_aux") made it very explicit that it's not OK to fully register
the aux device until we have the bridge, but hopefully just getting
the i2c bits early is OK?
Changes in v6:
- Use new drm_dp_aux_register_ddc() calls.
