As the function name says, drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge function will return panel, bridge or both of them according to given arguments.

So I think we wouldn't need additional discussion at all becuase we don't touch panel but add only bridge device as output, and the use of this function for bridge looks more generic way.
Of course, as a separate patch, we could consider using this function for panel device later.

Hm... I don't see why Rob introduced drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge fucntion[1] if DSI devices should be described as child nodes.
And some DSI drivers of other ARM DRM - vc4, mediatek, and kirin - use only drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge funtion.

commit 1f2db3034c9f16ed918e34809167546f21d0fcb4

    drm: of: introduce drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge
    
    Many drivers have a common pattern of searching the OF graph for either an
    attached panel or bridge and then finding the DRM struct for the panel
    or bridge. Also, most drivers need to handle deferred probing when the
    DRM device is not yet instantiated. Create a common function,
    drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge, to find the connected node and the
    associated DRM panel or bridge device.
