Is the CEC controller configured into dw-hdmi (is the config bit set?)
I'm just wondering if we're going to end up with two CEC drivers trying
to bind to the same notifier.

It sounds like this adds additional information that has been missing
from the review of my patches - and I suspect changes Hans' comments.
So, I'll wait, it seems pointless to try and update the patches when
it's not clear how to proceed due to other dependencies, especially
when it means that their existing state is what's required (I'm pleased
that I've held off modifying the patches so far.)

If that means having to wait another kernel revision, then I guess that's
what will have to happen.
