Currently the only pure DSI bridge is tc358764, adv7511 registers as
both i2c and dsi bridge driver, but in dts files it is always as i2c
device, so it is never a child of DSI host.
In case of DSI panels I have found 2 which uses obsolete bindings
(orisetech,otm8009a, jdi,lt070me05000) - ie they are child nodes of dsi
host and have graph links- in their case drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
will work.
The rest is either not present in dts, either follows current bindings
guidelines (all samsung panels) - no graph bindings if it is a child of
dsi host.
I gave up with checking panel-simple, as it has too many compatibles.
> If you are right then the devices - bridge or panel - are controlled by i2c or spi and only image data are transferred from DSI to bridge or panel by MIPI lanes?
Yes, or the control is mixed: power-up initialization/link-setup only
via i2c, other commands and data via dsi.
