[PATCH] drm: hibmc: Use set_busid function from drm core

Thanks for pointing me towards that series.

That series (in particular patch 4) actually fixes the bug I was trying
to fix, so it renders my patch unnecessary. However, I notice that
series has attracted a lot of discussion: any ideas when is it likely to
land?

I just want to avoid the situation where we don't merge my fix because
of Daniel's series and Daniel's series also doesn't land for another few
releases!

Regards,
Daniel
