[RFC V2 1/3] drm: implement chaining of drm bridges

[Ajay Kumar]

As of now, we can have only one bridge hanging off the encoder.
With this patch, we allow multiple bridges to hang onto the same encoder
with the use of a simple next_bridge ptr.

The drm core calls bridge->funcs for the first bridge which
is attached to it, and its upto the individual bridge drivers
to call bridge->funcs for the next bridge in the chain.
