Re: [PATCH] drm/bridge: dw-mipi-dsi: Move drm_bridge_add into probe

[yannick Fertre]

Hello Jagan, I tested your patch on the stm32mp1 board.
Unfortunately, the dsi panel does not probe well with this patch. The 
problem is due to the panel which is placed in the node of the dsi 
bridge (no problem with i2c devices).

Regarding component bindings for stm drivers, I am currently working on 
a new version.

Best regards

Yannick
