Would you be happy with me sending a patch that replaces the whole
logic in two meson_encoder_{cvbs,dsi,hdmi}.c with
devm_drm_of_get_bridge()?
I see two benefits:
- simpler code
- a patch less in your series (less maintenance burden for you)

What I'm not sure about is how this series interacts with
devm_drm_of_get_bridge() which is why I'm asking before cooking a
patch.


Best regards,
Martin
