Hello,

This patch series converts the R-Car DU driver to use the DRM bridge
connector helper drm_bridge_connector_init().

The bulk of the v1 series was converting the adv7511, simple-bridge and
dw-hdmi drivers to make connector creation optional (through the
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag), and have already been merged. v2
includes the remaining patches.

Patch 1/4 addresses the rcar-lvds driver. Instead of implementing direct
support for DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR, it simply removes code that
shouldn't have been in the driver in the first place by switching to the
panel bridge helper.

Patches 2/4 then adds support to the dw-hdmi driver to attach to a
downstream bridge if one is specified in DT. As the DT port number
corresponding to the video output differs between platforms that
integrate the dw-hdmi (some of them even don't have a video output port,
which should probably be fixed, but that's out of scope for this
series), the port number has to be specified by the platform glue layer.
Patch 3/4 does so for the R-Car dw-hdmi driver.

Patch 4/4 finally makes use of the drm_bridge_connector_init() helper.

The series depends on "[PATCH 27/27] drm: Add default modes for
connectors in unknown state" ([1]) to avoid a breakage on the VGA output
on R-Car Gen3 platforms. That patch has already been approved, and I'll
get it merged as a prerequisite.

The series has been tested on the Renesas R-Car Salvator-XS and Draak
boards with the VGA, HDMI and LVDS outputs.
