[PATCH v2 19/22 EXPERIMENTAL] drm: Amend struct drm_dp_aux with connector attribute

On dual GPU laptops which cannot switch the AUX channel separately
from the main link and therefore rely on proxying through the
vga_switcheroo active client, we need to restrict this to eDP so
that only communication to the internal panel is proxied and not
to external DP-connected displays which cannot be switched between
GPUs, at least on the retina MacBook Pro. Therefore, amend struct
drm_dp_aux with a pointer to the connector that the AUX channel
belongs to so that we can check the connector type before using
proxying.

It actually seems more intuitive that the parent of an AUX channel
is a specific connector rather than a device: The device an AUX
channel belongs to can be determined from the connector by following
connector->dev, but the connector an AUX channel belongs to cannot
be unambiguously determined from dev since a device may have multiple
DP connectors. Unfortunately we cannot remove the dev attribute since
the msm driver calls drm_dp_aux_register way before initializing the
connector, and the tegra driver uses a distinct of_device_id for the
AUX channel so that it initializes separately from the connector.
These two drivers set the newly added connector attribute in struct
drm_dp_aux in a delayed fashion, i.e. upon initializing the connector.
They are not known to be used for dual GPU laptops right now but maybe
they will be in the future, so it seems reasonable to set the attribute
in these drivers as well.
