The patch in itself looks good, but the bigger picture does not.

The ddc and hdp should be muxed to the hdmi block, so they should not
operated as gpios.

The mux seems more of a gpio so it should be made more explicit - i.e.
actually support muxing (if that's needed) rather than just setting hard
coded values.

And you should not gpio_request/free the gpio upon every usage, request
it during "probe time" and release it during "remove".
