Thanks a lot Daniel for clarifying my comments to Inki :)

There *is* a connection between the FIMD eDP connector and the eDP panel
nodes but these are connected using a phandle while the connection for
the FIMD eDP connector and the eDP/LVDS bridge is using the OF graph DT
bindings (Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt).

And also the connection between the eDP/LVDS bridge and the LVDS panel
is using an OF graph node, so what I meant is that it would be much more
consistent if both the eDP -> panel and eDP -> eDP/LVDS bridge -> panel
connections used the OF graph DT bindings.

Just to be clear, my patch is not correct since the Exynos DP driver and
its DT binding does not support to connect an FIMD eDP connector to an
eDP panel directly using OF graph ports / endpoints (only a phandle). But
is an example of how the DT will look like if we extend to support that.

IIRC at the beginning only eDP -> panel was supported and the phandle
was used and later when the eDP -> eDP/LVDS bridge -> LVDS panel use
case was needed, then a bridge phandle was added but Ajay was asked to
use OF graph instead a phandle and we ended with different approaches
to connect components depending if a bridge is used or not.
