[PATCH v2 01/26] drm/bridge: add of_drm_get_bridge()

of_drm_find_bridge() does not increment the refcount for the returned
bridge, but that is required now. However converting it and all its users
is not realistically doable at once given the large amount of (direct and
indirect) callers and the complexity of some.

Solve this issue by creating a new of_drm_get_bridge() function that is
identical to of_drm_find_bridge() except it takes a reference. Then
of_drm_find_bridge() will be deprecated to be eventually removed.

Changes in v2:
- fix "mutex_unlock() before drm_bridge_get()", and use scoped_guard() to
  do it cleaning instead of complicating code
- rename to of_drm_get_bridge()

Note: a simple implementation would just be
  { return drm_bridge_get(of_drm_find_bridge(np)); }
but it would release the mutex before getting the reference, so it is
not safe. Make things simple by duplicating the code. A later patch will
make instead the (to be deprecated) of_drm_find_bridge() become a wrapper
of the new of_drm_get_bridge()
