drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge calls of_graph_get_remote_node and that
function looks up the main remote device node, i.e. not the remote
port or endpoint node but the parent node. So, bridges using .of_node
have stored their main device node in the .of_node member. I.e. the
same value as of_node in struct device for all current cases.
