[PATCH v2 1/8] drm/bridge: use bus flags in bridge timings

Stefan Agner stefan at agner.ch

The DRM bus flags conveys additional information on pixel data on
the bus. All currently available bus flags might be of interest for
a bridge. In the case at hand a dumb VGA bridge needs a specific
data enable polarity (DRM_BUS_FLAG_DE_LOW).

Replace the sampling_edge field with input_bus_flags and allow all
currently documented bus flags.

This changes the perspective from sampling side to the driving
side for the currently supported flags. We assume that the sampling
edge is always the opposite of the driving edge (hence we need to
invert the DRM_BUS_FLAG_PIXDATA_[POS|NEG]EDGE flags). This is an
assumption we already make for displays. For all we know it is a
safe assumption for bridges too.
