Sorry for another shamefully incorrect reply!

The &dp_aux_ep_device_with_data.done_probing only supports passing the 
&drm_dp_aux parameter, meaning we can't directly pass &component_ops.

I'll also add extra context to the commit msg – similar to what I did 
for v9 patch 9/15 – so everyone understands why this change was made and 
avoids confusion.
