mmm, I can't tell where I made that up from... Will change with
MEDIA_BUS_FMT_*

Right. I'm afraid this may open a pandora box, but, ehm, where is the
bridge objects lifetime managed? The best I can think of is to use the
resource managed version of kmemdup, associating that memory to
the drm_device device object. That means the memory will be freed at
DRM pipeline teardown time only if I'm not wrong. Can a bridge be
destroyed before that?

Thanks
