The Versatile Express uses a special configuration controller
deeply embedded in the system motherboard FPGA to multiplex the
two to three (!) display controller instances out to the single
SiI9022 bridge.

Set up an extra file with the logic to probe to the FPGA mux
register on the system controller bus, then parse the device
tree to see if there is a CLCD or HDLCD instance on the core
tile (also known as the daughterboard) by looking in the
root of the device tree for compatible nodes.

- If there is a HDLCD on the core tile, and there is a driver
  for it, we exit probe and deactivate the motherboard CLCD.
  We do not touch the DVI mux in this case, to make sure we
  don't break HDLCD.

- If there is a CLCD on both the motherboard and the core tile
  (only the CA9 has this) the core tile CLCD takes precedence
  and get muxed to the DVI connector.

- Only if there is no working graphics on the core tile, the
  motherboard CLCD is probed and muxed to the DVI connector.

Core tile graphics should always take precedence as it can
address all memory and is also faster, however the motherboard
CLCD is good to have around for diagnostics and testing.

It is possible to test the motherboard CLCD by setting the
status = "disabled" property on the core tile CLCD or
HDLCD.

Scale down the Versatile Express to 16BPP so we can support a
1024x768 display despite the bus bandwidth restrictions on this
platform. (The motherboard CLCD supports slightly lower
resolution.)

ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Rewrite CLCD detection and mux priority logic, look in
  the device tree root for core tile graphics.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- No changes just reposting rebased on mainline changes.

This approach seems reasonable (modulo a couple of nits below), and 
almost certainly sufficient for most realistic uses, but I can't help 
wondering whether it might be feasible to model the mux with its own 
separate connector/bridge driver which could handle prioritisation of 
multiple inputs itself (I'm pondering things like RK3288/RK3399 where 
the two VOPs feeding into the single HDMI block looks a fair bit like 
the V2P-CA9 situation if you squint at it).

I did look and make a brief attempt at that approach using a bridge
device for the mux. The problem is that the scenario of daisy-chained
brigdges isn't really there, I would have to invent the world for this,
I added timings to the dumb VGA bridges and now what would be
needed (as decribed by Laurent) is a timings daisy-chaining API
so that the driver can ask the whole chain of bridges to accumulate
timing effects and present the resulting timings.

It can be done, but it would sadly also break some implicit
assumptions in the existing DT bindings.

I would say it is a separate task that can be looked into once we
are migrated over to DRM.

The only thing we have for muxes is vga_switcheroo. It's most likely not
what you're looking for. drm_bridge itself is not designed for chaining
with multiple, selectable inputs. So also not what you're looking for.

What might work is if you model the mux as the drm_encoder (which can
select from which drm_crtc it gets its data), and then chain the SiI9022
as a normal drm_bridge from that. But that would tie the different
instances together rather closely. It would also move pl111 totally away
from the drm_simple_display_pipe helpers.

I didn't take any closer look at the code itself, so add lots of grainy
salt to my advice :-)
