I'd previously pushed patch #1. Now I've pushed the rest of the
patches to drm-misc-next with Dmitry's review:

10e619f1f31c drm/bridge: parade-ps8640: Handle DP AUX more properly
50e156bd8a9d drm/bridge: Add devm_drm_bridge_add()
3800b1710946 drm/dp: Add callbacks to make using DP AUX bus properly easier
