[PATCH 2/6] drm/bridge: aux-hpd: separate allocation and registration

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Sat Feb 17 2024 - 10:03:35 EST


Combining allocation and registration is an anti-pattern that should be
avoided. Add two new functions for allocating and registering an dp-hpd
bridge with a proper 'devm' prefix so that it is clear that these are
device managed interfaces.

devm_drm_dp_hpd_bridge_alloc()
devm_drm_dp_hpd_bridge_add()

The new interface will be used to fix a use-after-free bug in the
Qualcomm PMIC GLINK driver and may prevent similar issues from being
introduced elsewhere.

The existing drm_dp_hpd_bridge_register() is reimplemented using the
above and left in place for now.
