Any variant of of_drm_find_bridge, and drm_bridge_attach. Just like
we're doing in sun4i_rgb.c

Ok, but it's not at all what you mention in your commit log? You don't
need any of that in order to support a bridge downstream.

We've had this discussion over and over again, but this is something
that needs to be documented and / or in your commit log.

You must not deviate from the standard (and expected) behavior without
any kind of justification.

DSI bridges don't register a DSI host.
