I don't see much in the way of support for source devices in this:
how do we handle hotplug of the sink, and how to do we configure the
physical address?

Surely you aren't proposing that drivers should write directly to
adap->phys_addr without calling some notification function that the
physical address has changed?

Please can you give some guidance on how a HDMI source bridge driver
should deal with these issues.  Thanks.
