I fixed some build issues of this series and I am trying to use it
with the mxsfb drm driver.

I would like to add bridge support for this driver, so that I can use
the TDA19988 HDMI bridge on a imx6sx-udoo-neo-full board.

My dts looks like this:

+               };
+       };
+};

and I changed it to:

ret = drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge(drm->dev->of_node, 0, 0, &panel, &bridge);

,but drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() always returns -EPROBE_DEFER.

Shouldn't it be able to find the bridge chip in this case? Any ideas
of what it is missing?

Thanks
