Finally got back to this, changed it to 1 and figured out why I left it
at 2.

drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() on a DP controller will find the of_graph
reference to the USB-C controller, scan through the registered panels
and conclude that the of_node of the USB-C controller isn't a registered
panel and return -EPROBE_DEFER.

So I picked 2, because I'm not able to figure out a way to distinguish
between a not yet probed panel and the USB-C controller...

Any suggestions?
