[RESEND,0/3] Convert mtk-dpi to drm_bridge API

Message

The reason for this resend is because I forget to add some bridge
maintainers. So adding them and collect the actual tags.

The mtk-dpi driver still uses the drm_encoder API which is now somewhat
deprecated. We started to move all the Mediatek drivers to the drm_bridge API,
like we did for the mtk-dsi driver [1], this is another small step to be able to
fully convert the DRM Mediatek drivers to the drm_bridge API. A dummy
drm_encoder is maintained in the mtk-dpi driver but the end goal is move all the
dummy drm_encoder (mtk-dsi, mtk-dpi, etc) to the main mtk_drm_drv driver.

  drm/mediatek: mtk_dpi: Rename bridge to next_bridge
  drm/mediatek: mtk_dpi: Convert to bridge driver
  drm/mediatek: mtk_dpi: Use simple encoder

A gentle ping, I think this patchset still is missing a reviewed tag from bridge
maintainers if is fine.

Thanks,
