Just bridge should be clear enough.

Why?

Note that Liu Ying's atomic series touches this also, and after
"drm/imx: atomic phase 3 step 3: Legacy callback fixups" the enable
callback exists. Depending on how either series proceeds, one will have
to be rebased onto the other.

Let's keep this message, at least as dev_dbg.

What happens if (!remote)?

Any reason to disallow overriding EDID from DT if there is no panel? I'd
leave this part as is.
