I did some testing on boards where u-boot doesn't initialize the video outputs.
It seems that meson_encoder_cvbs_enable() is never called with this patch.
meson_encoder_cvbs_atomic_enable() is called though.

>From what I can see in drm_bridge.c [0] this is even expected.
Does this mean that we need to move all logic from .enable to
.atomic_enable (and same with .disable -> moving that logic to
.atomic_disable)?

The same comment applies to the HDMI patch.


Best regards,
Martin
