Hi Cristian,

the comments below apply sort of to all patches in that series.

I think this regulator was sort of a complete hack, to set that
gpio to some sort of default state, by declaring it as hdmi-pwr-supply.

Only 2 rk3576 boards seem, to use that hack, so I think as that "regulator"
is completely functionless now, the whole thing could be removed?

this should be sorted the other way around I think.

Also please provide a pinctrl-names property too. If for whatever reason
the dw-hdmi aquires a 2nd pinctrl state in the future, this makes sure
board DTs are staying in the "old" compatible mode until they are adapted.

pinctrl names should ideally match the naming in schematics, for example
the "HDMI0_TX_ON_H" for jaguar and tiger. This makes it way easier to
go from DT to schematics and back.
