[PATCH v8 17/29] phy: rockchip: usbdp: Register DP aux bridge

[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] drm_aux_bridge_register() is incompatible with the rockchip-usbdp PHY topology, breaking the DP bridge chain when USB and DP ports are split.

phy: rockchip: usbdp: Register DP aux bridge

This patch adds support to register a DRM auxiliary bridge if the DP
aux channel is connected. This enables DP altmode helper code on
devicetree based platforms.

[Severity: High]
Since the PHY detects the DP connector on port 3, is the call to
drm_aux_bridge_register() compatible with this topology?

Looking at how the auxiliary bridge driver probes in
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/aux-bridge.c, it hardcodes the downstream bridge
lookup to port 0:

drm_aux_bridge_probe()
  data->next_bridge = devm_drm_of_get_bridge(..., 0, 0);

If port 0 (the USB output) is unconnected or connected to a non-DRM
component, will devm_drm_of_get_bridge() return an error like -ENODEV?
This looks like it would cause the aux bridge probe to fail, breaking the
DP chain and leaving the DP controller waiting indefinitely with
-EPROBE_DEFER, unless both port 0 and port 3 happen to point to the exact
same connector node.
