No, I meant for the private structure pointer and the drm_bridge
pointer. refcount should be in drm_bridge, and I think is_refcounted
should be dropped.

You can identify all the bridges affected by this issue using:

virtual report

@ find_add @
identifier add_f;
identifier c;
identifier b;
expression d;
position p;
identifier r;
type T;
@@

 	...

	drm_bridge_add(&c->b)@p;

	devm_drm_bridge_add(d, &c->b)@p;
|
	r = devm_drm_bridge_add(d, &c->b)@p;
)
	...
 }

@ find_allocation depends on find_add @
identifier alloc_f;
type find_add.T;
identifier cal;
position p;
