Shouldn't the STM drm driver not simply defer if it's missing
a bridge that is referenced in the devicetree or somewhere?

personally I'd like number (3) a lot ;-) .

With your approach, at least the component-based variants would
end up with multiple probe cycles, getting clocks etc until at some point
the panel has probed, where in the current way of things, the probe is
done once and we continue bringup once the panel has probed and called
dsi-attach to signal it is present.

Which was actually what Andrzej wished for, when I moved the Rockchip
dsi to the common driver.


Or at least make it configurable via a param to the common dw-dsi probe
function. Especially as I also need the dsi bridge-less when used as a
simple means for the configuring the internal dphy to rx-mode, see [0]
