Maybe we can have both, but I am not sure, if I am missing something:

I still prefer option A for the samsung-dsim driver, because it is more
standard, simpler and avoids issues with encoders, connectors or handling
hotplug.

The idea is to use two bridges in the exynos-dsi driver: One bridge in the
samsung-dsim driver which implements option A and defers probing of the drm
driver until the next bridge is attached. And a second bridge in the
exynos_dsi that attaches to the first bridge (thus, allowing the exynos_drm
device to appear) and implements the hotplug handling for notifying drm via
connector status change.

The driver for the i.MX8M would use the samsung-dsim bridge without an
additional bridge.

This allows the samsung-dsim driver to expose the standard behavior while the
exynos_dsi may stick to the existing behavior for the exynos_drm driver.

I hope this makes sense and does not sound too crazy. It might be difficult to
get the probing and mipi host/device registration correct, but I will try, if
this can work.
