I'd like to propose myself as co-maintainer of the DRM bridge subsystem if
everybody agrees, following the excellent work Laurent and Andrzej did.
I have a very little knowledge of DSI, & other bridge drivers, but I'll do
my best.

For the dw-hdmi driver, we have a big roadmap including :
- HDR (this patchset)
- HDCP 1/2
- YUV420, YUV422, YUV44, 10bit/12bit/16bit HDMI output
- Enhanced audio support and ELD notification to ASoC
...

Having a more active maintainer/reviewer team would be needed, at least for
the dw-hdmi bridge.

I'll also propose Jonas Karlman <jonas@xxxxxxxxx> as reviewer since he is very
active for the multimedia support on RockChip, Allwinner and Amlogic SoCs.
I'll also propose Jernej Skrabec@xxxxxxxx <jernej.skrabec@xxxxxxxx>, if he wants,
as reviewer since he is very active on the Allwinner SoCs side.
